Delegation Facing


MFC Wednesday Over


Scallop Ban Question

x State Committee Threatens To
Close Bay To Recreational Harvest


-A delegation from Port St. Joe was in Tallahassee
Wednesday, as The Star went to press, to defend the
city's and county's position in a plan to close St. Jo-
seph Bay to recreational scalloping for at least a year.
The delegation, headed up by Chamber of Com-
merce executive secretary Tamara Laine, will oppose
the move, suggested by the Marine Fisheries Commis-
sion to prevent what it terms as the continued erosion
of scallops in the bays of Florida.
St.'Joseph Bay has an abundant supply of the popu-
lar shell fish, which is a summer-time target of tourists
and natives alike, who wade the shallows of the Bay or
snorkel in the shallow water flats, searching for the
scallops. The shell fish contain a large muscle of white,
sweet meat, prized as a delicacy to seafood lovers.
The hearing Wednesday was for those opposing the
suggestion of the MFC to shut down the remaining
bays-including St. Joseph's-for a full year to allow re-
covery of the scallops.
The MFC admits there is no current shortage of the
scallops in St. Joseph Bay, but bases its suggestion on
the fact that all other bays in Florida, with the excep-
tion of those along the Big Bend, have lost their scallop
population. It is also suggesting a re-alignment of the
season, once it is opened again and adjustment of the
limits.
Pollution in the other bays is cited by some as the
reason for the scallop demise. Another defense is that
scallops are a migratory mollusk, using St. Joseph Bay
as an incubator.
Harvesting of scallops is currently allowed in the
Bay between July 1 to March 1, with a limit of five gal-
-loI s per person: ...


The Star learned about noon yesterday
that the Marine Fisheries Commission
had compromised with the Port-St. Joe
delegation yesterday morning, at a hear-
ing held in Tallahassee. The Commission
had agreed to soften its recommendations
to the Florida Cabinet meeting from its
original stance, but still tightened up on
scallop harvesting in St. Joseph Bay.
According to Chamber of Commerce
executive secretary Tamara Laine, who
called The Star at noon, the MFC agreed
to recommend that taking scallops be
banned south of the Suwannee River and
that the season in St. Joseph Bay be re-
duced from its present length to a tempo-
rary season of July 1 to September 30.

recent decision to segregate a
portion of the Port St. Joe High
School students into .a Middle
School operation Tuesday. when
they approved a principal for the

for her outstanding service dur-

keeping with the spirit of her ded-

lishment of this endowment fund
in order to assure the continua-
tion of the Gulf County Scholar-
ship Program was one of the
highlights of Carla's term.


One year ago, a two-year
fund raising drive began in an ef-
fort to raise the $100,000 needed
for the endowment. Interest
earned in the endowment will be
used to match funds contributed

Srotion of Any 1
Commissioner Charles
Tharpe dangled the 'carrot' of
sewer service at very little cost be-,
fore -the citizens of Ward Ridge
Tuesday night, while Commis-
sioner Johnny Linton tossed the
Ice water of the reality of "no free
lunch" in their faces.
Tharpe wanted the Commis-
sion to "find a way" to install sew-
er service to the east side of Ward
Ridge and. replace much of the
'- ioblesome pipeline service to
*Wk west'side.
Johnny Linton, however,
countered with the idea that
should the people of Ward Ridge
get sewer collection service they
would have to pay. for at least the
lion's share of the installation. "I
live out there and I tell you the
people who live on the west side
of Niles Road are not going to be
crazy about paying for sewer over
again when they already have the
service. They paid for it once.
They're not going to be happy
about paying for it again and the
people of Port St. Joe aren't going
to want to pay for sewer service
for the people of Ward Ridge."
Linton went on to say that
everyone who now has sewer ser-
vice had to pay for its installa-
tion.
ENGINEER'S REPORT
Ralph Rish of Preble Rish En-
gineers, gave the Commission
some numbers for a sewer service
for the southern portion of the
city, which'furnish the service to
those not now served. Rish said
the installation would cost an es-
timated $350,000, which would
call for a payment from the pro-
posed customers of some $21.00
a month for a period of 40 years.
Rish pointed out that if the
City could pay at least $150,000
down on the system, the custom-
er liability would be reduced to
an estimated $7.00 per month.
Both customer figures were in ad-

Tuesday evening, the Port
St. Joe City Commission
agreed to acknowledge the
accomplishments of the
Sharks basketball team, in
winning the state champi-
onship in Class AA basket-
ball.
The Commission
agreed to create a Resolu-
tion recognizing the ac-
complishment and present
it to the members of the
team at the April 19 meet-
ing of the Board.
In addition to the Res-
olution, the Commission
gave directions for signs
acknowledging the team
and its status to be placed
at each entrance to the
city. The signs will be
erected just as soon as
they are prepared.


The recommendation would also ban all!
commercial scallop fishing inside the con-
fines of the Bay.
The MFC has claimed there are pres-
ently no scallops south of the Suwannee
River, with the exception of a few at Ce-
dar Key. This was one of the reasons for
their proposed moratorium throughout
the state.
Laine said the local delegation was at
least partially successful in its mission to
head off the complete prohibition of scal-
loping in St. Joseph Bay.
The local delegation was at least suc-
cessful in maintaining a scallop season for
the two most popular family holidays of

NI.


Snubbed!

AN AWARDS BANQUET WAS held last Thursday night for
our high school athletes, including the State Champion basket-
ball Sharks, to acknowledge their seasons this year. And the
awards are not over yet. We in Port St. Joe think highly of our
athletes; especially those who win state championships.
It isn't every basketball team that wins the title as being best
of all teams .in the entire state. As the late Coach Marion Craig
used to, say, 'That takes in a lot of territory the other side of
Wewa!"
Actually, it takes in all of it ... Including Tallahassee.
That would almost automatically mean the members of that
state championship team would occupy all the spaces on hono-
rary teams which are customarily named following a, season.
Just because there was only one senior on the team is no excuse
for slighting them.
A FEW WEEKS AGO, The Tallahassee Democrat named their
.honorary team and, guess what; there wasn't a single Shark on
the first team of the All Big Bend team selected by the Democrat.
One had to search all the way to the third team of the All Big
Bend selection to find the first Shark. Guess which Shark was.
labeled a member of the All Big Bend Third Team? It was Des
.Baxter, who was named the Most Valuable Player of the Class
AA tournament.
Wouldn't one think that the Most Valuable Player of the state
championship finals-a member of the state champion team-
would deserve honors of more than third team in the selection?
A player who has been selected Most Valuable Player of the state
finals should deserve recognition comparable to his accomplish-
ments. He deserves the honors of being on the first team.,
IF YOU WOULD LIKE to .have our opinion, he should be
named first in the selections, on the first team. No doubt about
it. He earned it. His peers gave him that honored position, why
can't the Tallahassee Democrat?
And John Bryant, Jermaine Larry, Mario Larry, Chad Quinn
and Damon Walker all deserve to be selected higher than honor-
able mention, too. They were all dues paying members of that
State Championship team.
How does the Democrat get away with such a snub of such
fine young athletes? Maybe it's because all of them are under-
classmen. They haven't reached that ekalted title of "Senior" as
yet. But that's. no excuse. They earned better recognition than
they received and we,,for one, think the Democrat should have
seen that they received it!



He Deserved It!
MIKE ROYKO HAS long been one of our favorite daily news-
paper columnists, along with Lewis Grizzard. Mike is about as
subtle as a lead pipe, and that's the way we like it. Call a spade
a spade and a joker a joker.
Last week he was more into calling a joker a joker than any-
thing else, when he was writing about Michael Fay. Who is Mi-
chael Fay? He Is a young man, 19 years old, who was temporari-
ly residing in Singapore with his stepfather and mother. Michael
was 'Just being a boy; a mite mischievous; just expressing him-
self' in a sort of obnoxious way. In the United States it would be,
the ofiffifn of those who try to understand why such brats d:,
mean things, an attempt should be made to reason with him.
BUT, IN SINGAPORE the authorities there have the funny
idea that spray painting buildings, throwing eggs at cars, switch-
ing license plates, tearing down traffic signs and other acts of
vandalism is just that-vandalism. They don't ,take 'kindly to
vandalism in Singapore. Actually, they give it: the punishment it
deserves. To them vandalism isn't funny.
'Young Fay was,. convicted of his vandalism by a Singapore
court and given the usual sentence. The usual sentence for
these kinds of things is four months in prison, a $2,000 fine and
six whacks on the bare fanny with a bamboo switch by a martial
arts expert. The final portion of the punishment hurts! Almost as
much as it hurt the building owners to have graffiti spray paint-
ed on their buildings; almost as much as it hurt the automobile
owners to have eggs thrown at their property, etc., etc.
MICHAEL FAY WOULD like to have the flogging portion of
his sentence waived'because of the pain involved. The authori-
ties aren't budging. Michael gets what he deserves and there is
no way. to avoid. Even Intervention by President Clinton has
been to no avail. He gets flogged. In the United States, such.van-
dalism would get him community control at the worst! More
than likely, he wouldn't get much more than a reprimand.
The difference such attitudes in wrong-doing makes is that'
Singapore streets are safe for anybody to walk on at any time,
anyplace. Those ;in the United States are not.

"Must 'a just got in from Cali-
fornia," I silently presumed as I
shifted the garden hose to my,
right hand and regripped the air
filter. The guy in .front of me had,
the worst-looking hair cut I'd
' seen in. forty-seven years. He was
bald on one side, shaved slick as
an onion; but on the other half of
his crown, he had hair going eve:-
:rywhere. Part of it covered his
ear, the rest swooped up toward
the front and fell down over both
eyes. As we stood in' line at the
hardware store, he would fre-
quently give his head a.quick jerk
upward to flop his mop skyward
and give himself momentary vi-
sion. I don't even want to talk
about his earring.
I thought of my Uncle Ben.
He told me years ago, "Kes, it-,
don't take all kinds-we've just
got all kinds."

The lady in front of us paid
for her wooden towel rack with
the little birds on the side and we
both moved up a notch.
"Los Angeles," I thought. He
must have read my mind because
he turned around but I couldn't
tell if he looked at me or not. His
eyes were lost in a mass of dark
hair.
My -dad ,would, have said
something to him for surely .I just
smiled anrd checked the top of my
shoes. Dad cut our hair for the
first six or seven years of my life.
He'd. borrow Mr. Brooks' electric'
clippers--go zip, zip. zip, zip, and
presto-I had a hair cut. GI style.
Dad couldn't cut it but one way.
He'd set those clippers on one-
sixteenth of an inch and get it all.
Me, and David Mark and Leon
looked pretty much like. I'm sure
the gentleman in front of me,
would be just as appalled at my
conformity as I was at his weird
attempt at Individuality.
Carpe sera, sera-which is
West Tennessee talk for "Whatev-
er floats, your boat!"
I never will forget my first trip
up to Gene's Barber Shop. It was


a whole lot simpler back in those
days. The men went to Genes.
the women went to Dixie Faye's.
No one ever got 'em mixed up. I
stepped- into that barber shop
with my chest pouched out. What
a proud moment My first ever
real hair cut! I took me a seat,
picked up a magazine with a guy-
catching a big fish on the front
which I never opened--I couldn't
take my eyes off the three profes-
sional hair cutters. They used
scissors, clippers, combs, razors,
and lots of talcum powder and
sweet smelling stuff when they
finished. I tell you, hair was
a flying everywhere! I was so en-
thralled that I didn't even notice
the checker game over in the cor-
ner until I was crawling up. into
the chair-my turn!
"How would you like it, sir?"
Mr. Gene really emphasized the
sir. I sat up as straight as I could.
'Well, I, uh-uh. ." It sud-
denly, dawned on me; I didn't
know how I liked it. I'd river had
a choice bef- :

Zip. zip. zip, zip. It was over!
It looked Just like all my other
hair cuLsl And Mr. Gene used
precious little talcum and no
sweet.smelling stuff.
Dad paid the twenty-five
cents which I thought was too
much as I moved over to the
checker board. Mr. Jack Cantrell
beat. Floyd twice at. "'swap out'" be-
fore they finished with David

I got better at the hair cut:

don't mind. And I want to be able

It kes More Than Being Named "Clinton" In Some Places


-HILLARY HAS MADE a con-
vert of me. I'm impressed by her
accomplishments in past years of
Investment activity. Anyone who
can take a $1,000 investment
and parlay. It into $100.000 in
two years has my undivided at-
tention.
A person may make that
much by working: especially law--
yers. Most of them make that
much money in one year, if they
are active and have the juicy cli-
ents Hillary is reported to havre
had in her former life as a work-
ing lawyer. Now, she is a politi-
clan, reportedly working at no
salary.
One commentator said she
could make that much money on
the commodities market, but
99.999% of the time, even an ex-
perienced investor would have to
have an accidental, extraordinary
run of luck to make that kind of
return on a $1,000 investment.
THE STOCK MARKET hasn't

been that kind to me in past.
years. Most of my experience with
'The Market" has been in the oth-
er direction. I've managed to lose
money.on three ventures into the
market, even on a "sure thing".
My fleeting, money-losing
venture in the futures market has
been one of regret. Maybe I in-
vested too much. The papers say
Hillary invested only $1,000. I in-
vested $5,000. Came away with
$167.001
I don't claim to be any genius
like people say Hillary is. I never
invested in cattle before, either. I
once knew a friend who took a fli-


er onr 10 contracts of pork bellies
before and got skinned.
The closest I ever came to the
cattle market was sitting down to
a delicious rib eye steak. I
thought I had ample return for
my money on that occasion.
.TOO, THE COMMODITIES
market is more volatile than an
irate women of'Latin extraction.
She can get pretty excited and ex-
plosive. Hillary was not only
smart. She was more than that.
She was downright lucky
I bought some orange juice
futures once about five or six


years ago and even back then, in-
vestors must have heard rumors
the Florida Citrus Commission
was going to hire Rush Limbaugh
to advertise their product. One
never knows what makes the
market go up or down. Someone
related to a member of the board
could have just thought about
suggesting to his friend that Rush
would be a fine pitch man for
them to have on into the future in
1994. That would have been
enough to make the price plunge.
Something did!
AFTER THAT EPISODE with
the stock market, I swore off gam-
bling away my money like that
and decided to keep it in my pig-,
gy bank.
The stock market may be a
way to make money for those who
do it every day. For those people
like myself and Hillary, who de-
cide to get ri-ich one day and take.
the advice of a self-styled expert:
on the shenanigans of the mar-


ket, it's no place to get caught
with your change purse open.
I even managed to lose mon-
ey buying what was ,billed as a
"can't-fail" stock. I still have it,
but to date it has depreciated $10.
a share since I bought it. This
was on the advice of a broker!
How did Hillary turn such a profit
making her own decisions? -..
I have sworn off investments
in the stock market. They aren't
for me. God never. .intended -for
me to even be well off, much less
rich. He has kept me poor, de-
spite all my efforts.-for' all these
years. Granted, God didn't make
me a pauper; but .He still has a
long way to go if He ever intended
me to be rich.. ',
BUT, YOU KNOW there may
be hope for my cash flow becom-
ing a raging river yet! Didn't Hil-
lary make her stash in just a little
under two years? I hope I have
more than two more years to live.
God will find no objections


from me, should He ever decide to
turn my fortunes in the same di-
rection as Hillary's'.
He doesn't even need to do it
in the stock market. He could
guide me into the real'estate mar-
ket, again like he did Hillary ...
and Bill. He could even make qe
a lawyer I .
Bill' and Hillary didn't, do so
,good in the real estate racket, ac-
cording to them. They lost a bun-
dle betting on a piece of property
to become valuable to the point
Where people would just be forced
to have a piece of it.
I feel for them. If it were me
investing in a' piece of real estate,
it would be on' the endangered
list, because it contained an an-
cient mastadon burial site.,
.. One, thing is still..hazy in my
mind over the Hillaiy. thing: if she
is so smart, which is her excuse
for cleaning up on the cattle mar-
ket, why didn't she just pass on
the offer to get involved In White-

I Can Remember When...
m Cokes cost five cents and a milkshake was 15 cents.
m. They weren't allowed to cuss on TV, much less do some of the
things they now do.
* It was a "sin and a shame" when an unmarried girl became preg-
nant. ,
: Wide white-wall tires were in vogue.
m. When murderers and rapists were too busy thinking about sav-
ing their lives than writing books or being on TV.
wB When students and kids who were bad were punished rather
than "coddled", like some of them now are.
M Smoking cigarettes was a "manly" thing to do.
: People somehow made marriages work, if only for the sake of the
children.
c- Cars and trucks didn't have air conditioners.
m Gas cost 17 cents a gallon when there.was a "gas war" going on.
* My father was extremely ill and I was so afraid he was going to
die, but I can't remember why.
oz There was no TV and no night-time radio except for the Grand
Ole Opry on Saturday nights.
= There was no such thing as "disposable" diapers.
ca All babies were breast-fed.
- Fathers taught their sons a "trade". My father taught me how to
work.
0, It was simmering hot.in the summer and freezing cold in the win-
ter. It still gets hot during the summer, but the winters don't seem
to be as severe as they were in the 1950's.
- Mother never bought "lite-bread". We always had fresh, home-
made biscuits. .
' Clothes were "hung out" to dry on a clothes line. They always
smelled so fresh and clean to me.

work. '

they'll hold your hair back 'til the
glue sets up."

CHILDREN'S HEALTH FORUM


Older Childen


and Accidents

"" "By
. 7' .," Elizabeth C. Jones, M.D.

Many accidents occur with older children because the child is
trying to do something beyond his years. The child wants to imitate
his older friends and the parents indulge him because they think it
is cute (.. or useful. Example is a child who is too young being al-
lowed to use a motorized lawn mower.)
Children always want to do adult activities. Many are being al-
lowed to use guns without the necessary instructions in their use,
and without being old enough. responsible enough, 'or skilled
enough to do so.
ATV's are very dangerous vehicles. Children should probably
not be allowed to ride on them with adult operators. They should
certainly not be placed in control of the vehicle. No laws are in effect
for operation of ATV's on private property. Parents must determine
whether or not their children will be exposed to this danger.
Horses, boats, scuba apparatus, and the list' goes on and on.
Children need to receive careful instructions, and supervision.They
need to be restricted to activities that are age appropriate.
Power tools were never intended for use by juveniles. No
amount of help from a child can make up for losing fingers, hands
or feet.


Pate announce the birth of their
son,- James Anthony. He was
born on March 6 and weighed
eight pounds, 7 1/4 ounces and
was 21 inches long.
Grandparents are James and
Wanda Pate of St. Joe Beach and
William and Kay Braddock of

mothers are Florence Biaddock

Elderly: Don't Panic

If You Start To Fall

Above All, Be Extra Cautious


After you fall, panic is often
your first reaction. However, how
you react after.a fall may actually
cause more injuries than the fall
itself
If you try to get up too quick-
ly...or in the wrong position...you
may make an injury worse...or
cause an injury even if the fall
doesn't.
SPeople trained in strategies
for getting up after a fall will be
more likely to recover quickly and
with fewer injuries. Here is a list
of things to do if you fall. Even
though these steps sound simple,
following them can mean the dif-
ference between minor and major
injury:
IF YOU FALL:
*Take a few deep breaths to
-calm yourself.


*Notice if you're hurt. Can
you move?
*If you fall on your back, roll
onto your side and then onto
your stomach.
*Take your time and move
slowly.
S*If you can, crawl to a strong
piece of furniture .or doorknob
and pull yourself up.
*Never try to get up directly
from your back.
*If you can't get up, ask for
help.
elf you're alone, crawl slowly
to the phone.
*Call someone who lives near-
by or call 911.
SRemember-the more relaxed
you are, the less likely you are to
be hurt

'The Blountstown capitalized
on an 11th inning Shark error
Friday night, to do something
they hadn't been able to do all
year long; defeat a Shark athletic
team.
Matt McCaskill went 11 in-
Snings in a pitcher's duel to out-
last the Sharks, scattering seven
hits and walking only two. Eric
Ramsey, recovering from arm sur-
gery in December, made his first
start and went four innings be-
fore being lifted for Adam Taylor,
who finished the game, scattering
six hits and giving up three
walks.
The Sharks took the lead in


-the first inning when Brian Jen-
kins scored the runner with a.
long single to center field. Taylor
was a little shaky, coming on in
the fourth, allowing two base run-
ners to reach safely, who scored
on a single. The Sharks tied the
score in the fifth inning, when
Cameron. Likely drew a walk and
Ramsey drove him home with a
drive into deep center field.
The score stayed tied, with
both pitchers keeping runners'off
the base paths, until the 11th.
Pitcher McCaskill slapped a sin-
gle, advanced on a stolen base
and went to third on a ground
out. Then, with two outs. Heath
Shuler nipped a little dribbler to
the second baseman for a sure
out, but the .throw was over first
baseman Doyle Crosby's 'head

All Is Quiet For A Week At WES
Except for a few cars down at
the school and Mr. Kelley work-
ing, all is quiet at the elementary
school. It wasn't like that on Fri-
day! The kids were more excited
than they were at Christmas
time. The shortened work day
still contained some cipheringg

of the pre-Easter holidays were
egg hunts, cook outs, and other
parties. The weather was perfect

Three Wishes From Third Grade
It's spring when boys and
girls can wish upon a dandelion.
This is how they do it. They find a
ripe dandelion. Ripe dandelions
have feathery, cottony seeds.
Children make a secret wish.
Then they blow. If they blow away
all of the' flower, their wish will
come true. At least, that's how
the story goes. Here are some of
the wishes the students in Linda
Whitfleld's class made: Monique
Sinnons-"I would wish that no
one would put trash in lakes, riv-
ers, or oceans." Jesse Taunton-"I
would, wish that my children
would have the best life that they
could have and not do drugs."
Aleasha. Hand-"I would wish for
peace all over the world."
The GreatesttInvention:
by 3rd Grader Nichole Dunkle
The greatest invention was
love, and it was invented by peo-
ple. I love everyone in the whole
world; especially my kin folks.
But I love my baby brother the
best."
"I Wonder About..."by
Third Grader Judith Husband
"I wonder about Heaven. I


want to know what it is like. I
really don't care when I die or the
world ends, because I want to
meet my great Granny and I want
to see my Aunt Dutchle again.: I
want to see my Grandpa Hus-
band. I know I won't be able to
see what those people look like,
but I wish I could. I love all those
people and that would be what I
would wish for. I wonder if that
dream would ever come true?"

Gov. Lawton rChiles got his health care reform through the Florida
House lat week il exchange for heavy lobbying on the Rosewood com-
pensation bill,' and budget negotiations broke down on school spending
to send the session into almost certain overtime.
The Senate denied reinstatement for Hmrnando School Board Mem-
ber bihne Rowden who was removed by Chiles in 1993 for talking pub-
lic business over the. phone to other board membersin violation of a
section of the Florida Sunshine law that doesn't apply to the senators
who decided h6r fate.
A property rights bill that would compensate owners when the state
takes awvay'the use of their land by agency rule is apparently dead for
this' session after a Senate committee postponed it with no more meet-
ing scheduled this session. -
> Chemical castration for second-time rapists and the death penalty
for a thfrd conviction passed the Senateto, face much tougher opposi-
tion in the more liberal House.
SAconstitutional amendment that lifts unlimited homestead protec-
tion for wealthy debtors in the bankruptcy law that has made Florida a
paradise for deadbeat millionaires passed the House..
Those were some of the highlights of last week's session that was
scheduled to end this Friday, April 8.
ROSEWOOD CLOUT: Black lawmakers showed their clout by
threatening to vote against the health care reform bill and school prayer
if. Democratic leaders didn't actively lobby for the $1.6 million comrpen-
sation bill for survivors of the white rampage against blacks in 1923 in
Levy county in the now abandoned town of Rosewood.
The adamant stand of the black caucus erupted first at a luncheon
with Gov. Lawton Chiles and his staff when Rep. Al Lawson, D-
Tallahassee, a sponsor.of the bill, warned that black lawmakers might
vote with Republicans against the governor's health care reforms.
"It's getting to be mighty upsetting that we've got Democratic mem-
- bears that are threatening to gut the bill in appropriations," said Lawson.
who has announced.he may change his vote for the voluntary prayer-
iri-school bill that is sponsored by Democratic North Florida Legislation
Rep. Randy Mackey, Lake City, and Sen. Charles Williams, Tallahas-
see.'
Although Chiles angrily replied he didn't like someone putting a
.gun in his ear on something he favored before they asked, the tough
stance of the 11 members of the black caucus at the luncheon got imi-
mediate action. Chiles' staff and Democratic leaders got on the phone to
successfully push Rosewood through a stalled appropriations commit-
tee to the floor of the House.
House Rules Chairman Peter Wallace, D-St. Petersburg, slipped be-
hind guarded doors with black caucus members during the debate on
: health care reform, ignoring a 1992 constitutional amendment passed
by voters to extend the open meetings law to legislators and House
rules that say meetings cannot be conducted in the members' lounge or
any location that is closed to the public.
They came back in 15 minutes and announced that an appropria-
tions committee meeting to consider Rosewood was postponed until the
next day due to the lateness of the hour. Black lawmakers, according to
second hand reports, wanted to take up the compensation bill at about
2 a.m., instead of waiting until the next day.
House Speaker Bo. Johnson., D-Chlpley, apologized t6 reporters for
the secret session. He said his staffdisobeyed his instructions to let re-
porters into the meeting.
The health reform plan that passed the House and faces tougher
opposition in the Senate. would allow 800,000 uninsured Floridians to
buy low-cost care coverage. Republican amendments, voted down in the
House, will have a better chance in the Senate, which is split 20-20 In
party affiliations. .
The package could extend the session if Gov. Chiles sends back the
bill after it passes the Senate and the conference committee but the
mdin reas6tfth'e session will be extended is budget snags over funding
schools. Senate President Pat Thomas, D-Quincy, told senators to ex-
pect to be called back.
PROPERTY RIGHTS: An untimely death for a bill that would have
allowed private landowners to seek payment through a mediator when
government restrictions limit use of the property came about 2 a.m. last
week. Senate Community Affairs Chairman Daryle Jones announced its
withdrawal by sponsor William G. Myers, R-Hope Sound, who said it
wasn't getting a fair hearing and will be on the ballot as a constitutional
amendment in November.
GLADES CLEANUP: A House committee passed a bill providing an:
11-year program costing $465 million to create storm water treatment
systems to send cleaner water into the Everglades. Sugar and vegetable
growers would pay about half the cost with South Florida taxpayers and
the state picking up the rest. Environmentalists claim the bill shows
Gov. Lawton Chiles and legislators are favoring the sugar industry
which they cite as the principal polluter of the Everglades and suggest a
penny-a-pound tax be placed on the sugar sales. Legislative leaders and
the. Department of Environmental Regulation say the plan is the best
and fairest way to cut pollution.
FISHING FEES: Saltwater anglers would pay $7.50 a year more for
a $12 a year fishing license under a bill passed by a House committee,
but only $3 more under a bill passed in a Senate panel. Both bills are
headed to the floor for action before the session ends. The proposals are
to compensate the commercial fishing industry If it is put out of busl-
ness by the passage of a constitutional amendment in November ban-
ning net fishing along Florida's coast. It isn't likely the legislature will-
pass a ban on net fishing.
DEAD AGAIN: The death knell for. this session has sounded for the
idea that always keeps coming back to allow legal advertising of public
notices in free-distribution advertising shoppers that have no news or
editorial content. A Senate committee sent the bill back for another year
of study and a House committee had it withdrawn after an unfavorable
vote on it.
ALMOST DEAD: Don't bet on a bill to regulate casinos If they are,
voted in via a constitutional amendment in November. Although Gov.
Lawton Chiles favors it, it would be the first time in history the legisla-
ture has attempted to regulate something that doesn't exist yet. Hear-
ngs on the bill have been delayed and 75 amendments have been pro-
posed. Sen. President Pat Thomas says its passage is doubtful. House
Speaker Bo Johnson says "a long ways to go."


PAY-RAISE: Thanks to a recovering, economy that is producing
more state revenues without a tax hike, state workers can expect a 4
percent pay-raise effective Nov. 1, according to Senate and House nego-
tiators.
BUDGET REFORM: Performance budgeting-an idea conservative
legislators in both parties and Gov. Lawton Chiles favor-seems on the
back burner for this session. A Senate committee has voted down some
key elements of the bill and refused to approve a time-table schedule for
phasing in immediately and now say they'd rather wait until next year
instead of batting the idea back and forth in the closing days of the ses-
sior.
The biggest block is that the Senate would set up a powerful legisla-
tive committee to oversee the new budgeting process. The House would
set up a powerful joint legislative committee to oversee the new budget-
ing process. The House would leave those duties to the Auditor General.
The idea calls for funding programs each year after studying their re-
sults, rather than just automatically keeping them in the budget just
because they have been funded in the past.
Then there was the secret meeting behind guarded doors of about
19 House members, including Rules Chairman Peter Wallace, D-St. Pe-
tersburg, and many black lawmakers, including Rep. Miquel DeGrandy,
R-Miami, a sponsor of the Rosewood bill.
They met in.a lounge connected to the office of Speaker Bo John-
son, D-Chipley, during a break in debate on the controversial health
care reform bill that black caucus .leaders said they wouldn't support
against Republican opposition unless Democrat leaders and Gov. Chiles
actively lobbied for the Rosewood compensation bill.
Reporters trying to get into the private meeting-which was illegal
under the sunshine law and House rules-were told the members were
.not discussing legislation (yeah) and that the constitution lets the
House set their own rules.
Speaker Johnson apologized to reporters later and said his staff dis-
obeyed his instructions to let reporters into the meeting.

Turtle Case,
The Florida Marine Patrol re-
ports last Saturday, March 6th at
9:30 a.m., an arrest was made in
Gulf county for unlawful posses-,
sion of a marine turtle. While re-
turning from scalloping, the com-.
mercial trawler, named "High
Liner", was boarded for Inspec-
tion in the Gulf County Canal.
The Florida Marine Patrol officer
observed an Atlantic loggerhead
turtle lying on its back on the
deck of the vessel. The officer
documented the illegal act and re-
leased the 170 pound turtle
which swam away freely towards
the Gulf of Mexico.
The captain of the 69' steel-'
hulled vessel. Lance R. Kitson,
age 33, of Barnegat Light. New
Jersey, was arrested and booked
in the Gulf County Jail. State
charges for unlawful possession
of marine turtles are pending.
Marine turtles have been list-
ed as either threatened or endan-
gered and come under specific
protection in recent years with
strict and mandatory penalties
set by the Florida Legislature. A
conviction for unlawful posses-
sion of loggerhead turtle, a
threatened species, carries a
mandatory penalty of from
$100.00 to $500.00 fine and up
to 60 days in jail. Further de-
fined in Florida Law, mairlhe tur-
fties also .demand ,an additional
$100.060 special penalty.
