commentary the land use plan — slip, slidin'away?

The City of Sanibel was incorporatedfor two reasons.... to formulate a landuse plan that would prevent the islandfrom becomiing either overly or poorlydeveloped and to provide our ownpolice force. While the police force hasproven to be exceptionally effective,the land use plan seems to be sufferingsomewhat.

On July 19,1977, there was a movingceremony in the old Mackenzie Hall ascity council members and citizensobserved the first anniversary of theadoption of "Sanibel's historic plan."Former Councilman VernonMackenzie even resumed his old seat atthe council table to mark the day. Oneyear later, July 19, 1978 slid obscurelyinto oblivion. That there were nosentimental observances this year wasnot accidental', for, during the 12months between the two dates, cityfathers have taken various steps thatsubstantially alter some of the plan'sprovision without following the ac-cepted procedure for such changes.

The emergency Donax St. ordinance,for example. With money available forroad repairs from surplus Causewayfunds, the city council passed anemergency ordinance banning trucksfrom using Donax St., thereby ef-fectively halting the development of asubdivision just off Donax St. While atrip to the judge failed on its face tochange the ordinance (due to atechnical question of standing) thejudge's comments prompted the cityattorney to reiterate his advice to thecouncil to lift the ordinance because it

was "shaky" and it was, subsequently,removed.

A ban on new water hook-ups due toan Island Water Association-imposedmoratorium ran from June 1, 1977throught April 1, 1978 halting newconstruction, since building permitscould not be obtained without proof of awater hook-up. The ban was finallylifted, over vigorous opposition fromcouncil members, because of a suitinstigated by several island buildersand a threat by Lee County Com-missioners to withdraw the IWAfranchise if the moratorium were notlifted.

Almost immediately, CouncilmanGoss (who had introduced the DonaxSt. ordinance) started talking about amoratorium on building pendingoutcome of the proposed Committee ofthe Islands growth limitation or-dinance. He subsequently altered thatto a moratorium on multi-familybuilding until the beginning.of the year.That went into effect in mid-July.Now there is a proposal pending by

Mayor Zee Butler that requires 10,000square feet of open space per rentalunit that is available for periods of lessthan one month and more than 600square feet in size, • Most multi-familyparcels are zoned five to the acre. Anacre contains 43,560 square feet.> UnderMayor Butler's proposal, for a one-acrepiece of property, a builder wouldrequire 7,000 more square feet of landthan he has just for the open space.That is before he constructs thebuilding, or buildings if they are to be

duplexes, and provides requiredparking.

The Planning Commission's actionslast week in refusing a developmentpermit for eight units on a parcel that iszoned under the land use plan for nineon the grounds of "neighbourhoodincompatability" is another case inpoint. Judy Workman's motion tocontinue the case was first worded toallow the applicant to present a specificproposal for two duplexes, effectivelylowering the density of that property bybetter than 50 percent. VariousCommissioners had previously in-dicated that the two-duplex propositionmight be acceptable.

That action is another example of thesame kind of "back door" rezoning ofthe land use plan and, in our opinion,provides city officials, especiallyappointed rather than elected officials,with more authority than is permittedunder our laws.

We are not saying that a change inthe zoning of certain land is wrong.Rather we are saying that it is beingdone incorrectly. Judging from thesupport of COTI's ordinance and othersentiments expressed at publichearings, perhaps some re-zoningshould be considered. But that isn't anarbitrary decision to be made by anygroup alone. What the city shouldn't beengaging in - and is - is back-doorrezoning. It is wrong because theComprehensive Land Use Plan is thelaw and laws are established so thateveryone operates by the same stan-dards; it is wrong because people can't

comply with standards that are notspelled out or that change from week toweek; it is wrong because major zoningchanges should undergo the samescruitiny that went into the Plan in thefirst place.

We don't understand why, since somany of our Commission and Councilmembers seem to be so adverse tosome of the Plan's provisions, theysimply don't rework those elementsaccording to the tenets of democracy.Surely it is not an inability to face thefact that some of the plan's areas couldstand re-working. No-one everbelieved it to be cast in bronze. Butmajor changes in laws should be madedeliberately because we base our liveson them. It is an injustice to thecitizens who would obey them to dcotherwise.

letters to the editor from page 4

developer about the proposal. Thisletter could easily have been misin-terpreted by interval owners. Judgingfrom several letters it appears it hasbeen. My interpretation of legislationis that it is not a threat to current in-terval owners but oaly limits futureowners and construction. This new lawshould be applauded by intervalowners, vacationers, and islanders forthe following reason:

1) If the present rate and type ofconstruction continues we will haveanother Miami "Miami Beach" onSanibel, thus ruining the casual at-mosphere and irrepairably harm-theenvironment.

2) A point all condominium andinterval owners should consider, if thistype construction is halted or limitedyour investment will most certainlyincrease in value based on the law ofsupply and demand.

I would urge the council to limit allconstruction on Sanibel in order tomaintain its atmosphere and preserveits natural beauty.

Editor, THE ISLANDERThe Kiwanians are a small group of

eager youngsters whose pride inathletic achievements is sort oftouching. When they boast in the pressthat they defeated the local Lions in asoftball game they've said it all.They've shot their bolt. They've puttheir best foot forward and it's stuckright in their mouth.

They don't tell you that on the day ofthe game five Lion starters were out oftown competing (successfully) in theSuper Senior Division of the GreaterAlva Skateboard Rally. Nor do theytell you that the rest of the squad spentthe entire previous day participating ina benefit Punk Rock Concert at ShellPoint Village, performing (withouttheir naps) from noon 'til well past 9:00P.M.

Nor do they tell you how we came tomake that Yogurt commercial. One ofour boys, 25 years ago, was approachedby the CIA to infiltrate that longevity-blessed region of Russia. Then thetown gets tapped for the commercial.When a former girl friend recognizedhim on TV (he had not changed) she

was so passionately determined to joinher long-lost lover that her efforts blewhis cover.

We Lions are proud of our averageage. However, the careless Kiwaniansoverstate it as 135, forgetting that justlast month several of our oldermembers put together a trapeze actand transferred to Sarasota. t

The generally calumnious letter wascorrect in a minor aspect. Some of ourolder members indeed still do cling tothe sherry tradition before dining. Butmost of us have cut loose and nowprefer what we call a TeePee, which isnothing more than equal parts ofTequila and Polident.

Now these kids are not bad, they'rejust young. They'll improve. We wereyoung once. We simply grew up andwised up.

If they keep on with their efforts onbehalf of the school (ex: they raised abundle to provide air conditioners); ifthey continue to light a tree for us allevery Christmas; if they keep oncleaning-up the beaches twice a year;and fund-raising by selling those 2 for 1dinner books and now those beautifulcalendars — they co tld some daymature enough to win our admiration.We already feel a fatherly affection.

The obfuscations; tintinabulations;and gnashing of teeth now rampantaround Sanibel and in the local papersappears to eminate from three sources.

Those who prefer a reasonableamount of living, breathing andrelaxing space.

Those who become lonesome,sometimes bored and often frightenedif there is no one always close at hand.

Those who busy themselves per-suading the other two that they shouldhave what they want.

Perhaps our City Council should callin a Federal Mediator to settle thevarious issues. He might decide to doso by allocating a certain amount ofspace to everyone who "HAS ARIGHT" to live it up on Sanibel, for thisis what will have to be done if recentletters to the Editor mean what theysay.

TO: MAYOR Z. BUTLER, CITY OFSANIBELFROM: PAUL A. HOWESUBJECT: TITLE TO PERIWINKLEWAY - SAN-CAP ROADS

At the October 23 Planning Com-mission meeting, the proposed newTransportation Element of the(comprehensive land use plan (CULP)was thoroughly discussed in all itsramifications. As expected, im-provements to the subject roads werethe focal point of the discussions of theConsultant, Commissioners, and theaudience.

There appeared to be a great deal ofuncertainty, however, as to how andwhen the State-mandated transfer ofmaintenance functions from City toCounty is to be accomplished. Thequestion of right-of-way transferseemed to be the crux of the problem.That perplexity, I believe, arises out ofa "carefully cultivated myth" designedto discourage the City from pursuingthe mandated transfer of the costlymaintenance function.: The mythpivots around the extensive and ex-pensive legal research time and costsallegedly required to convey the right-of-way involved.

I believe that our City Attorney willverify that Chapter 337.31 of theFlorida laws dispels that rumor. Inessence, that law provides that afterfour years of public maintenance ofsuch a road it shall automaticallybecome a "dedicated" one to the extent

in width which (it) has been actuallyworked for the period." (County andCity records should readily establishthat width).

That law goes on to state: "all right,title, easement, and appurtenancestherein and thereto, whether there beany record of conveyance, dedication,or appropriation to the public use ornot" shall be conclusively presumedunder the circumstances to rest withthe pertinent county or city. (It wasprobably such a law that Lee Countyrelied upon to shift its responsibility tothe City without any formaldocumentation at the time of In-corporation.)

Even as Cape Coral is now doing withits Del Prado Boulevard, it seemsappropriate that Sanibel negotiate atransfer target date of 1980 for the twoarterial roads on Sanibel. As sub-stantial contributors to the County'stax coffers, the City's taxpayers areindeed entitled to the utmost con-sideration in this matter so as to reducethe impact of the Dual Taxation burdenplaced upon them by the County.

It would also seem in order andurgent for the City to begin to w - kclosely with the County in develop _Jthe needed plans for improvements, inthe affected roads that are con-templated in the proposed newTransportation Element of Sanibel'sCLUP, and hopefully will be included inthat element of the County's CLUP nowin preparation.

on the water by mike fuery

While we are saying good-by to thesnook for several months and stillawaiting the annual fall run of redfish,you can get in some very good fishingfor scrappy snapper.

There are many anglers who wouldrather eat baked or broiled snapperthan any other fish caught in Florida.I'm on that list too.

Mangrove snapper are aroundseveral popular fishing spots alongSanibel and Captiva Islands. RedfishPass has three or four large schools ofsnapper and hunting around for a fewminutes usually locates a few fish.

Use shrimp for bait and keep that

tackle right on the bottom and you havethe ingredients for landing a couple ofthese fish. They are running about 12 to15 inches, or a pound in weight.

The best part is you might also latchonto a late season snook or grouper.These two other types of fish are inmost of the passes too. Don't expectlarge snook, but you might bepleasently surprised while snapperfishing.

Besides the passes, you might lookfor snapper while fishing along themangrove islands in Pine Island Soundfor redfish. These fish always seem tobe split second faster than the average

islander angling by pacia fields

A week or so ago an islander whoshall remain nameless (one who is bothreliable and notorious) spun an in-teresting yarn that happened tocoincide with an article I had recentlyread. Perhaps you have also witnessedsuch an event, if not, like me, keep youreyes open as you gaze seaward andperchance you will partake as they did'n a phenomenon of nature.

The true tale goes like this: His eyewas- caught by two schools of mullettravelling approximately 20' fromshore on the gulf side, no sooner had heascertained just exactly what it waswhen he noticed a shark fin headed inthat direction. The shark, which heguessed to be about 7 or 8' in lengthstarted to circle the first school andwas soon joined by a couple of hisrunning mates. It wasn't long beforethey had the mullet corralled, so tospeak, and started to make swoops intothe group gobbling as they went Now,this was truly a fascinating spectacle -the mullet jumping and seeminglyflying (as much as 20 feet) and theshark circling and charging. The primedifference, in my gentleman friend'sstory and the excerpt was that onesighted this action in the morning andonein the evening. The latter was leftwith a mystery for when he returned in

the morning the mullet were gone.Obviously they were not all eaten byshark; instead both agreed thateventually the sharks' tummies wereabout to bust and since they do notbelong to the sect that takes a siestawhile the food digests , but rather aremembers of the perpetual motionfamily, they simply left satisfied andthe mullet lit out for the hinterlands. Nogreat secret that the shark likes hismullet raw - but what about us?

The exponents of this delicacy of thesea like it many ways or better still justany way. Fried mullet is a con-versation piece whenever anAlabamian is talking, whether it beabout fish or food. And the mostcommon method of preparation (oncethe fish have been gutted and the headremoved) is to salt, roll in yellow cornmeal and pan fry (preferably an ironskillet and corn oil)....delectable!

Another Sanibelite says that one ofthe best meals he ever had was smokedmullet at a little restaurant on the roadbetween Naples and Miami. Thishappened in the 60's and he relates withsome sorrow that the eatery is no more,but the remembrance of that smoked

fisherman. So you might run through afew pieces of bait before you land one.I often use only half a piece of shrimpwhen fishing for snapper. On largeshrimp is like a sitting duck to a hunter,when it comes to a quick snapper.They will clean you out of shrimpbefore you realize it. Often,though, bybreaking the shrimp into two piecesyou release a scent into the water thatdraws fish to your hook.

You can use a quarter-ounce yellowjig for snapper too, but put a fingernail-sized piece of fresh shrimp on it for bestresults. On that subject, a womanfishing with me the other day broughtin a very unusual fish as well as landingseveral nice sized pnapper. This fishcame to the surfacieand I did a double-take as I neted it. The fish looked like ared snapper, but it had several longrooster-like feathers sticking into theair from in front of it's first dorsal fin. Ihad never seen such a creature. Wekept it alive and when we made it backto the marina, out came the "official"fish identification book. With the aid ofseveral people we finally located thefish in the book.

It's called a hog snapper or hog fishsnapper. The "hog" part comes infrom it's snout, which, in a way,resembles a pig's nose.

Mrs. Thomas Thorner, of Tamarac,Florida caught the fish. She had

several pictures made of the fish, thenREASEASED it. The two-pound, hogfish is a rarity around these islands.Gordon Tracy, of Out Island Marine, onSanibel was at Tween Waters Marinawhen the fish was -brought in. Gordonis a highly experienced diver and saidhe has seen hog fish several times inthe lower Florida Keys, but never thisfar north.

There are several large "pigfish" orgrunts being taken along with thesnapper in Redfish Pass. These arevery colorful fish which also have a"pig" snout on them. These fish have asomewhat funny story about themwhich I've heard is true.

Down in Key West these fish, it issaid, along with grits, kept most of thatsouthern most city alive and wellduring the Great Depression of the1930s. That's where the "grits andgrunts" term came from, I'm told andthe little, good tasting fish also earnedanother name. Down there it's oftenrefered to as being a Key West Pork-chop. So if you hear an angler sayinghe's caught a few Key West Porkchops,you know what he's talking about.

Good luck out there this week andremember to keep an eye on theweather. It's that time of stiff northwinds which can really kick up thoseseas and result in a bad boating in-cident if you aren't prepared.

mullet is still vivid.Just how the mullet was smoked at

that particular establishment isunknown; however, it is thought thatpossibly buttonwood was used as this ispretty well accepted as the best wood todo the job.

Aficionados of creamed cod, it takesall kinds, could filet their mullet, packthem in a wooden box alternatinglayers of mullet and salt and aftersoaking and boiling same, place themin a white suace..guaranteed to tastemore like salt codfish than salt codfish.

Unless you've got a generous neigh-bor, or want to pay the price in thestore, it means a trip to the waterwaysto try your luck with the net...Floridalaw says you may use either the dip orcast net for mullet and, if black mullet,the keepers must measure at least 11".There is no limit on the size of the silvermullet, however.

Trout are beginning to vie with

mullet on the just plain numberScoreboard, it seems. They areanywhere, everywhere and aretravelling with their full entourage.

Redfish are not far behind though theyare neighborhood conscious and stay inthe bay, primarily in the mangrovesand ladyfinger section of MclntyrePass. There are a few snook beingbrought in from the sanctuary, somegrouper are keeping watch on thecauseway as are the jacks. Floundersseem to be casing the area beforebringing the family round.

One small thought before you dropeverything and head for the enticingwaters surrounding our islands - in thelate fifties the Miami Herald reported(reportedly) that the fish otherwiseknown as mullet should be named"Lisa" - now - don't tell me that wasn'tworth waiting for. Good fishing, goodcatching!

athe new marco island

Sixteen miles south of Naples, basking under sunnyskies in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, lies MarcoIsland. Archeological evidence indicates that as earlyas 3,500 years ago ancient man hunted and fished theshores, sandy ridges, and woods of the six-mile-longfpur-mile-wide island, making it one of the oldestinhabited places in the United States.

Like most of the islands in Southwest Florida, it

.,- -•>•: •<'•

Goodland nestles in the mangroves in the distance.

was at one time home to the Calusa (Caloosa) In-dians, whose shell mounds remain their sole legacy.It was visited by the Spaniards who roamed the area,and finally white settlers who established permanentresidence in the 1800s. In 1922 Barron Collier pur-chased most of Marco and added it to his ever ex-panding holdings; he already owned most of what isnow ColUer County, Everglades City, and Useppa.The island shared in the general prosperity of hisempire until it was sold to the Mackle Brothers'Deltona Corporation in the early 1960s. In 1964planned development was undertaken which, thoughof a chequered history, continues today.

A recent survey of more than 2,000 conferencecoordinators revealed that the Marco Beach Hotel isthe fourth most popular resort in the country formeetings and conventions. Recently it was placed onthe market for sale; the price tag, a whopping $40million. The hotel and grounds are luxurious, situatedon more than 26 acres of beach front property and anadditional eight acres that provide parking, 16 tenniscourts, and a pro shop.

Marco is a semi-tropical island with an averageyear-round temperature of 74 degrees situated insome of the best sports fishing grounds in the nation,thus making it an ideal target for development! \Projections indicate that it will have a population of23,000 by the year 2,000.

Unlike Sanibel, Captiva, and other barrier islanin this region, Marco has been visibly ravaged bydevelopment. Great areas have been stripped of allvegetation, and the Deltona Corporation has recentlyapplied for permits to remove some additional 4,000acres of mangroves. Ultimately one supposes or-namental vegetation will be planted to hide the scarsof development/but, at present, many areas ofMarco remind one of those tropical islands of thePacific that became strategic during World War IIand military construction crews virtually strippedthe vegetation to make way for airfields and militaryencampments. To further destroy the image of anisland paradise, stoplights control traffic at manyintersections.

Marco does offer the regional amenities of sun,sand, swimming, shelling, fishing, golf, tennis andboating, as well as some quality accommodations forvisitors, a variety of shops, and a number of in-teresting restaurants, but it bears a markedresemblance to the overbuilt, wall-to-wall disaster

and the old naplesareas of the Floridian east coast. To understand whatthis area was like before development, one shouldvisit the nearby community of Goodland. Establishedas a fishing community, and consequently somewhatrustic, Goodland retains its early character as itnestles among the mangroves not far from the tollfree bridge on State Route 92.

Naples, by contrast, is a quiet though quitecosmopolitan community which, in many ways,resembles Palm Beach. It was founded in 1878 byfamilies from Kentucky who established a fishing•esort. The site grew slowly until 1923, when CollierCounty was established and Naples became a town.Interestingly enough, while Barrow Collier acquiredvast tracts of land, he was unable to purchase Naples.It did, however, receive its share of benefits from theTamiami trail he pushed through Collier County. Thetown began to expand after World War II, duringwhich it constructed an airport, but really began todevelop when the county seat was transferred herefrom Everglades City after Hurricane Donna in 1960.

Naples has followed a path of zoning since its in-ception, and its strict zoning laws have ensured itsresidents that the heart of the community will remainmuch as they found it. While growth has come, in theform of golf courses and condominiums, it is wellWanned and executed and not blatently oppressive. It

well laid out, and its streets and avenues areenhanced by attractive and well maintained buildingsset back from traffic. Considerable wealth has beenbrought to Naples by those who reside or winter in thecity, and this is especially apparent when one drivesthrough such residential sections as Port Royal. It isfurther evident when one visits the many shops, somequite exclusive, along Third Street and Fifth Avenuein the vicinity of the old pier. Here one findseverything from antiques and high fashion to bric-a-brac and junque displayed in well appointed shopslocated in architecturally attractive buildings, manyof which boast arcades and courtyards.

An especially unusual shopping area is Tin City.Once a conglomeration of docks and warehouses, ithas been converted into a collection of buildingsmaintaining their antique character while housingshops displaying a wide variety of wares. Old brickwalks, heavy beamed ceilings, weathered paneling,wrought iron gates, antique lamps, and a wealth ofmemorabilia make it a nostalgia buffs paradise. A

restaurant and bistro cater to dining needs, and averanda over the water provides a refreshing place torelax while watching activity in the nearby marina.

Naples is a cosmopolitan community, and itprovides something for everyone, though with a senseof taste and old world propriety. Activities in thisarea run from the Dinner Theatre to the Dog Track,from haute cuisine to the pub, from high societysocials to swamp buggy races, but it is all done well.

Departing from Bailey's Shopping Center, the60 mile trip to the toll bridge (20 cents) at MarcoIsland can be made comfortably in one and one-half hours via the causeway, straight aheadover Gladiolus to Rt. 41 South. Turn right on Rt.41 South through Naples to State Rt. 951, turningright as the signs indicate. One may also use theRt. 41 Naples bypass to avoid city traffic.

After visiting the island, take State Rt. 95 overthe toll free bridge near Goodland to Rt. 41 andturn left to Naples. The island is 16 miles fromNaples. The round trip of 154 miles, includingthe tour of Marco Island and Naples, can bemade in eight hours.

chamber maids

by kay pratt

No, dear readers, we are not writingabout domestic help in this articlealthough that would be a naturalassumption on your part. We arewriting about a special group of womenwho live on Sanibel and spend a certainnumber of hours every week not beingdomestic at home.

We thought it might be of interest toshare with you some of the inside in-formation that you may not know aboutthese members of the community.They're among the most gracious andknowledgeable "hostesses" you'reJjkely-tQ meet anywhere on the islandsbecause their-official, paid jobs involvebeing Receptionists at the'Sanibel-.Captiva Chamber of Commerce; toursof duty that are far from easy.

In 1975, when Marilyn Deege became

Secretary of the Chamber, she was -and still is - responsible for mailing outthe weekly bulletins to all members ofthis association. These bulletins list allthe daily inquiries made at theChamber. The amount of mail comingin has become staggering. It is not aptto decrease as the years roll by.Marilyn started signing these bulletins"Walter and his Chamber Maids" justfor fun soon after she took office, andthe title has stuck. It is fondly used bythe business men and women on the rollcall who receive this invaluable in-formation, as well as their friends.Letters often arrive headed "DearChamber Maids."

at the Sanibel end of the causeway,keep all our public representativesbusy beyond words. Sitting in a chairbehind the front counter for just a fewhours, as unobtrusively as possible,just listening and watching, can be aliberal crash course in public relations- as we found out just recently.

Walter Klie, who became theExecutive Director of the Chamber inthe fall of 1975, replaced ExecutiveSecretary Francis Roberts who haddone a terrific job for six years beforeher required retirement. He is veryproud of his helpers and finds themabsolutely indispensable. There's amarvelous esprit de corps among allthe staff under his directorship and noone, including Walter, seems to knowthe meaning of one-upmanship. Youfeel the "one for all and all for one"atmosphere the minute you step in thefront door.

The "Maids" man the front desk inshifts. The office is ready for businessevery day from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m.except on Sunday when the doors areopen from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Thereceptionists all work part-time, theirhours and days are scheduled - butsubject to change. They are a flexible,self-management group, each oneresponsible for swapping her time on

duty with a co-worker when unex-pected personal demands occur.Marilyn is too busy to keep track ofchanges in their schedules and saysthat none of the gals have ever let herdown by leaving the office shor-thanded. Quite a record in itself.

At present, the "regulars" on dutyare Betty Uhr, who has been theresince Nov. 1975; Doris Densen, RitaGroh, Elsie Blain, and Polly Seely.Elsie and Polly are the most recentmembers of the Club, having replacedAnn Nazarawah and MadeleineJeannides who both retired at the endof this summer. Some of these char-ming women are glamorous grand-mothers and all of them have variedand interesting backgrounds.

Most of us know, more or less, whatservices Chambers of Commerce offerand the benefits received by those whobelong to the organization, but ourChamber is different because ourislands are different than most places.The word "unique" has become rathertiresome - but that's what they are, andthat's what they hope to continue to bein spite of the uphill battles beingfought by all concerned citizens.

organizational meeting held by ahandfull of business people. Themembership is limited to those withlicensed businesses and it wasoriginally called the Sanibel BusinessAssociation with Dean Mitchell, PaulStahlin, and Tom Bilheimer voted asthe first Steering Committee.

One may well ask how one Director,one Secretary, and five part-timeReceptionists can cope with presentday demands. Two "Maids" are onduty from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., at whichtime there is a changing of the guardsand the evening shift takes over. Theyseldom sit down, are always cheerfuland go out of their way to make everyperson contacted feel welcome andimportant. Walter could, and does,produce some vital statistics that arealmost unbelievable. Some ex-Maidsare called upon to pinch hit from timeto time.

And always there are questions. Theinquiries that come flooding in by mailand in person. We can only list a few ofthe most unusual ones. The usual andno. 1 on the list is, of course, WHEREDO WE FIND THE RARESHELLS...To even things up, there arethe people who stop by and say, "We'releaving. There are too many shells onyour beaches. They hurt our feet."

Unusual: "What's worth $3 to seearound here? Which motels havewater beds? May we leave our guppieshere while we're on the beach so's theywon't get too hot? We won a week'svacation as a prize but left all the in-formation at home. Are we on the rightIsland and which condominium wouldit be? Where can we stay that has nowood-boring mosquitoes? We have tofind this little place right next to agreat big place. . . . " It goes on and on.

There was an elderly gentlemanfrom Miami looking for ac-comodations. "On the Gulf?", he wasasked. "Oh no. I haven't played for 40years," came the reply. Miraculouslyenough, an endless amount oftelephoning produces satisfactoryanswers to almost all questions, im-possible as they may sound.

Now you know more about the so-called "Chamber Maids" and theChamber of Commerce in general. Wecould go on and on, too. This in-formation is only the tip of the iceberg.There are so many more details we'dlike to tell you about, but our time is up.

We'll have to sign off by' wishingthem all trie best of luck and adding ourprayers for their survival during thenext six months. We think they'll needit.

changing colors or yarn types.If the word "creativity" scares you, try a yarn that

already has a variety of colors in it. It will create it'sown pattern as you knit. You may have to make adecision on whether to use wool or synthetic fiber.Wool is warmer, stronger, and offers more variety intexture. It should, however, be hand washed anddried flat. Synthetic yarns have brighter colors andcan be machine washed and dried, and are less ex-pensive. Some yarns are a blend of wool and syn-thetic fibers and give the best qualities of both.

Knit a Scarf with Creativity

Scarves are a very popular part of fashion today.Perhaps the cold weather from the north is respon-sible. The success of the fashions in the movie "AnnieHall" brought the scarf influence indoors. Looselyhanging around the neck with a knot on both ends.Why not knit a few for yourself and for Christmaspresents while you have some time? It doesn't takevery long. If you don't know how to knit, use thepictures to help you. This is a great beginners'project! There is no worry about sewing piecestogether or fitting someone.

The fun in making a scarf is in choosing the colorand texture of the yarn. Mixing yarns together is agreat creative experience. You normally need 8ounces of yarn for a large warm scarf. Cut thatamount in half for a loosely knitted smaller scarf.Even though cashmere is very expensive, you wouldonly need a small amount by using large needles.(And what a luxurious gift that would, be') Mohairand weaving yarns make interesting textures andvery warm scarves. Stripes can be made by

knit too tightly, especially when they cast on and bindoff.CAST ON: This method is called knitting on thestitches. It's a good way to learn. Start with a slipknot (Fig. l) and follow the next 4 steps.KNIT: Surprise! If you have casted on, you alreadyknow how to knit. In Figure 5, let loop on left needleslip off, so that the new stitch is entirely on rightneedle. Continue with next stitch and each one afteruntil all stitches are on right needle. Turn needle,take it in left hand, and work the same way.

FIG-. 2

Fit. 3

The directions for a standard size scarf are asfollows: Cast on 30 stitches. Knit every row until thepiece measures 50" or the desired length. Bind thestitches off loosely. Add fringe to the ends, if youwish, or tie the ends in an overhand knot for an AnnieHall scarf. If you are a beginning knitter, try to keepan even tension. Most beginners have a tendency to

BIND OFF: Knit the first 2 stitches of the row. Insertleft needle into the first of the 2 stitches, and pull firststitch over 2nd and completely off needle. Knitanother stitch, insert left needle again, pulling firststitch over 2nd and off needle. When the row iscompleted, cut the yarn 4" from the end and put itthrough last loop.

seafood workshop teaches islanders to smoke fishbytimharris

Last Wednesday I attended a Seafoodworkshop at the Sanibel CommunityCenter run by Kathy Smoot of theExtension office of the University ofFlorida. Knowing very little aboutpreparing seafood myself, it was agood learning experience for me. Idiscovered a lot of things I never knewabout preparing the denizens of thedeep for the dinner table.

First, Harry Chippeaux of FortMyers showed us how to go aboutsmoking fish. Harry usesan electricsmoker,but a method was also givenfor smoking fish on your barbecue grill.It's really quite simple, and you canuse it on any grill be it electric, gas orcharcoal. The first thing to do, aftergetting the fish, is to acquire about apound of hardwood chips. Hickory,buttonwood and apple are preferred bymost people, but any hardwood will do.(One precaution. NEVER try to use asoftwood like pine or mango. Pine willruin your fish with tar, and mangosmoke is actually poisonous!) Thechips then need to be soaked in water sothey will smoke instead of just burn.Soak about one pound of chips to twoquarts of water several hours orovernight. The fish then needs to bemarinated in a brine solution for abouta half hour. Make the brine solutionwith about one cup salt to a gallon of

ker.

You are now ready to start the grill.The heat used for smoking fish is lessthan is used for normal barbecuing, somake your fire small (or on a gas orelectric grill, keep the heat on low).

When the coals are ready, spreadabout one third of the wood chips on topof the briquets, and place the fishbetween four and seven inches from thecoals. Close the grill top, or if your grill

doesn't have a top, fashion a cover ofaluminum foil. Open the vent in the topof the grill slightly or, if you're usingaluminum foil, punch some holes in it.When the smoke, diminishes, add more

Mary Broach

wood chips as needed.At 150 to 175 degrees the smoking

time will be about one hour. The time ofcourse will be less at higher tem-peratures. A good test to see if the fishis done yet is to poke a form into thethickest portion of one of the pieces andtwist lightly. If the fish flakes easily itis done. Fat Fish such as Mullet andBluefish work best for smoking, butlean fish such as Trout and Groupercan also be smoked quite successfullyif basted frequently with cooking oilduring smoking.

That's all there is to it.There are of course many other kinds

of seafood, and many other ways toprepare it. Mary Broach, HomeEconomist with the Florida Depart-ment of Natural Resources preparedsome fish and shrimp dishes at theseminar, and when they were broughtout at the end to be sampled and,needless to say, there were no lef-tovers. These are all easy recipes.Around these parts it seems that theonly thing most people do with mullet isfry it. Well, here's another way to fix

mullet that's at least as good as fryingit. It's called:

FESTIVE MULLET2 lbs. mullet or other fish fillets, freshor frozenV2 cup French dressingl»/2 cups crushed cheese crackers2 tablespoons melted fat or oil Paprika

Thaw frozen fillets. Skin fillets andcut into serving size portions. Dip fishin dressing and roll in cracker crumbs.Place on a well-greased cookie sheet,15x12". Drizzle fat over fish. Sprinklewith paprika. Bake in an extremely hotoven, 500 degrees F., for 10-12 minutesor until fish flakes easily when testedwith a fork.

Most people have had some ex-perience preparing soft shell shrimp,but Rock Shrimp has only been on thecommercial market for about fiveyears and so many people have not yettried them. This is a mistake, as RockShrimp are very tasty, and not reallyany harder to prepare than Soft ShellShrimp. Here's a good recipe for RockShrimp:

BROILED ROCK SHRIMP2 lbs raw unpelled, split rock shrimptails fresh or frozenVz cup butter or margarine, melted1 teaspoon garlic saltV4 teaspoon paprika

Thaw rock shrimp if frozen. Rinseunder cold water to remove sand vein.Place rock shrimp flat with meat ex-posed on a baking pan, approximately15 by 10 by V% inches. Brush rockshrimp with butter. Sprinkle withgarlic salt and paprika. Broil 4 inchesfrom source of heat for approximately

2 minutes or until tails turn upward.Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.

To clean whole rock shrimp tails forbroiling, 1. Place a rock shrimp tail ona cutting board with the swimmerettesexposed. With a sharp knife make a cutbetween the swimmerettes through themeat to the hard shell. 2. Spread theshell until it lies flat, wash thoroughlyin cold water to remove all the sandvein. Commercially split tails are inthis form. The meat can be removedfrom the shell and cooked by thesimmer method or broiled.

The ISLANDER Tuesday, October 31,1978

police reports

Naturally the big"drug bust" was thisweek's event on Sanibel.The island is known forits excellent shelling, asis Australia. While thelatter has its GreatBarrier Reef, Sanibel isnow being called TheGreat Reefer Barrier.(See story page 1A)..Motorcycles were the

cause of much of thisweeks activity. Onesuspicious cycle wasreported in'the drivewayof an unoccupied house.Upon investigation thecycle was discovered -engine still warm - butthere was no sign of thedriver. The offendingvehicle was towed to alocal garage. Severalinstances of unduly noisycycles were reported,but were GOA. The SPDwas able to assist twocyclists who had run outof gas by transportingthem to a station whichs e r v i c e d t h e i rrequirements. Like mostthings, cycles run incycles!

Speaking of gas, we alld aware of its con-

stantly .increasing price.The pinch is being felt asthere have been anumber of reports of gasbeing siphoned fromparked cars during thewee hours. Might not bea bad idea to check yourgas cap and gaugebefore taking any ex-tensive trips.

The islands are notedfor their informality so itwas not unusual for theSPD to investigate theActivities of two menwearing white gloves inthe neighborhood of anisland inn during theearly hours of themorning. Though onecarried a screw driverand the other a wrench( s u p p o s e d l y forprotection) a checkrevealed they were notwanted by area police.As the "were leaving theisland and would not beback," no further actionwas taken.

Several bee hives werereported as being

^knocked over, and this^ a s relayed to the hives'

owner. These are notonly protected as privateproperty but presumablyprotected by the bees aswell.

A car was reported

afire, but the in-vestigating officerdiscovered the fan belthad broken causingoverheating and con-siderable smoke. Guessthe owner had concludedwhere there's smoke,there's fire.

Over-indulgence tookits toll this week. Oneinebriate was discoveredriding a bike in adangerous fashion and.was hauled off to Detox.Another phoned torequest a ride home, butthe SPD was UTL uponarrival. A third wasescorted to his place ofresidence while the SPDretained his keys forfurther discussion.

As for keys, a numberhave been discovered inthe locks of homes andbusinesses and returnedto the owners. A civicminded citizen lockedher car keys in theCommunity Center butthe SPD gave her accessto the building in shortorder.

Remember the oldstory about crying wolftoo often. Well, thealarm system of aCaptiva residence hassent in so many falsealarms that both thepolice and fire depart-ments of both islands arereluctant to answer.Hopefully the systemwill be repaired soon, asthese departments havebetter things to do thanchase false alarms.

A dog has beenrepeatedly reported asdoing its business on aneighbor's lawn. TheSPD arranged that theowner and the com-plainant get together todiscuss this situation.Possibly City Councilshould enact an or-dinance similar to thatenacted in New York tosolve this problem.

Events rounding outthe week include thereport of an escaped petblack billygoat (sub-sequently recovered),shots being fired(Unable to locate orconfirm), lost girls(found), and a number ofconstruction workerswho had to be told thatcreating noise at jobsites is forbidden bet-ween 5 p.m. and 7 a.m.and definitely not per-mitted on Sunday.

Sanibel's great alternative to winteris right here ... but what in the world

is Vail doing on our island?

Sandstone Creek Club. The world's newest Interval Ownership resort has an office here.

Simply 'slalom' down Periwinkle to the newInterval Realty office for full details!Vail. The magic of the Rocky Mountains provides thebreathtaking backdrop for this famed resort community,reknowned for superb skiing and year 'round vacationatmosphere. A perfect blend of recreation facilities anddistinct seasons make this an ideal 'escape' any time of year.Interval Ownership in Vail brings the cost of vacationingthere down-to-earth, in an area where real estate prices havesoared astronomically since the boom of the 60's. Vacationhome prices and rentals reflect the high demand for thelimited inventory. Home prices range from $90,000 to$200,000. Rentals range from $450 to 1,500 a week! Owningand controlling just the amount of time you can pleasurablyand profitably use (to beat these high costs) is whatSandstone Creek is all about. Vail and Sanibel have much incommon, in terms of prestige and controlled environment.Both have stringent land use plans for the limited amount ofreal estate available. Both have strong and sensible emphasisupon preserving the natural environment. Both provide aspecial, unique quality of life for residents and tourists.Now, area residents are invited to learn more about Vail andInterval Ownership, right here on Sanibel.

ELECTION 1978

Candidates night - a full house

hears council candidates'viewsA full house of Sanibel residents

turned out last Wednesday for Can-didate's Night at the CommunityAssociation Hall.

Co-sponsored by the League ofWomen Voters and the Sanibel Com-munity Association, questions posed tothe candidates by the audience rangedfrom city acquisition of the Steamboatproperty to low-cost housing.Questions posed in written form to theCandidates also touched on land useplan amendments and the citymanager form of government.

The candidates are all generallyagreed that the land use plan is a good

one and all are agreed that someamendments need to be made to it.Mayor Butler championed an or-dinance she is proposing that wouldalter the plan with respect to intervalownership and "high impact" apart-ment units. Both Butler and GeraldWierman specified "contiguous lots"as areas that are most in need ofrefining. Joe Gault and Mike Klein alsocame out in favor of simplification ofthe Plan. White cautioned that itshould be changed with caution.

Mayor Butler expressed some sur-prise at a question posed about a citymanager vs. mayoral form of city

government. She, Weirman and Gaultall strongly favored the professional,salaried manager form of government.

Mike Klein temporized slighly,suggesting a look at other cities in asimilar situation would be helpful.White said that he wondered whetheranyone could be as effective as con-ditions demand, but didn't state apreference for one or the other forms ofmunicipal government.

The acquisition of the steamboatproperty brought sharply dividedopinions. Mayor Butler is strongly in

WHY MIKE KLEIN FORCOUNCIL?

Many Islanders wonder why so many people want to see Mike Klein takeover the present incumbent's seat on the City Council. We who know him wellwant to share our enthusiasm for Mike with all of the voters.

Here are the reasons why we feel that Sanibel can profit by using histalents: Mike has spent thirty years in engineering and scientific research forthe federal government, much of it directing the daily operations of 450engineers and scientists. One of his toughest jobs was the scheduled com-pletion of the multi-million dollar procurement activities of his laboratory,seeing that the government got what it wanted and that it got its money's wor-th. His receiving one of the Army's highest civilian awards attests to his out-standing job. ,

Mike Klein knows something about fiscal responsibility. He had to reviewthe complex laboratory budgets, and scrutinize and evaluate proposed ex-penditures. He has learned how to ferret out surplus funds usually squirreledaway under odd budget headings. Furthermore, his engineering backgroundwill give the Council some expertise that is sadly lacking. He will be able to in-terpret consultants' technical reports to assure they are adequate and worththeir cost. He will know whether the City is getting full value or a $10,000 snowjob. Mike Klein will see that the City does not waste the taxpayers' money.

He is a skilled negotiator and mediator. He negotiated his laboratory's an-nual support agreements with the military base on which it was located, andwas charged with obtaining most economically the needed levels of buildingmaintenance, machine shop work, photographic and reproduction work, aswell as legal and contracting services. Mike was chairman of a NATO com-mittee concerned with the international standardization of military equip-ment, meeting biannually in Europe to thrash out some agreement among thecountries manufacturing similar devices. Here again he was highly suc-cessful in getting final standardization on U.S. designs. Mike Klein knows howto get the results he wants, and will do a better job in dealing with Lee Countyin the interest of Sanibel.

Mike's experience, his technical expertise and innovative ideas coupledwith our need for a new face on the Council all make the undersigned happy toendorse Mike Klein as the man for a council seat.

that would require: single - memberdistricts; establishment of reap-portionment standardsand an in-dependent Commission to prepare areapportionment plan for Legislativeand Congressional Districts.

REVISION NO. 4 - This would abolish(effective January, 1983) the electedCabinet system affecting six executiveofficers of the State and make themsubject to Gubernatorial appointment.It would also dilute certain of thegovernor's sole powers by requiringhim to act jointly with at least one of hisappointed Cabinet in the investment ofstate funds, management of bondedindebtedness, and acquisition anddisposition of state lands.

REVISION NO. 5- This would convetthe recently legislated five-memberappointed Public Service Commission(PSC) into a constitutional rather thanstatutory body.

from page onefavor of purchasing the gulf-front land.She feels that the value of the land willincrease and the City should buy theland to prevent its development. Sheforesees "low intensity" developmentsuch as hiking and bike paths throughthe property with no major beachactivity. Klein and Wierman bothstated that they were relieved that itwas a referendum question. Kleinexpressed reservations about theaddition of V2 mill on Sanibel's advelorum taxes and Wierman isreserving judgement until a plan forthe use of land is presented.

Joe Gault is opposed to the purchasebecause of the cost factor and theadded traffic he feels the facility willgenerate from the mainland. Whitewas in favor of the purchase.

One issue that all candidates wereagreed upon was halting thedevelopment of more condominiums onSanibel. Mayor Butler apparently

stated the consensus of opinion whenshe said that the condominium concepthad been violated because they "hadbasically been turned into motels."

Both Wierman and Klein favormoderate income housing and bothchallenge the statement that Sanibelresidents will have to subsidize any ofit. "There are loans available froi»»U.S. Government agencies for three-five years at three percent interest fordevelopers to build this kind ofhousing," Wierman said.

The proposed rate of growth or-dinance also came in for discussion lastWednesday. Replying to a questionaddressed to her about the proposal,Mayor Butler stated that the Council,when adopting the land use plan, askedthe Planning Commission to look into arate of growth ordinance.

City Council of Sanibel: In this racethere are two seats in contention,currently held by Duane White and ZeeButler.

Duane White's seat is beingchallenged by Gerald Wierman and theISLANDER endorses Wierman for thespot. We feel that while White hasdevoted much time and hard work tothe city, he has been active in shapingit for a number of years and we feelwhat it is time for a change for a

number of reasons, one of which is thesame reason that Porter Goss gave forstepping down as mayor: one person ina position of power for too long canstultify the direction in which thegoverning body is moving. We feel thatWierman is an interested, honest mandedicated to Sanibel with sound ideason many issues.

We agree with his "let's see whatWey're buying before we decide tospend the money approach" to theacquisition of the steamboat propertyis commendable; his concern formoderate income housing and ideas foracquiring the financing are sincere andhis thinking in that direction is moreenergetic than any that has beenprovided by council members to date;

he thinks before he speaks and when hedoes, it is with reason. Gerry Wiermanhas the ISLANDER vote.

The three-way race for the seat nowheld by Zee Butler is a more difficultchoice. Mayor Butler has, as mayor,represented the city well. She has putin much hard work and her interest inthe functioning of the land use plan isdedicated but not blind. We questionthe latest "high impact" ordinance shehas proposed, not because of its in-terval ownership tenets, with which weagree, but the fact that much moreneeds to be donw with it, and theremainder of the provisions do notseem equitable.

Joe Gault would bring a refreshing

point of view to the council; he cer-tainly knows the Island and we like hisstraight-forward no-nonsense stand oncity government. We agree that tryingto build a home under the land use planwould likely terrify everyone exceptthe major developer; we like hishumane attitude toward governmentand his fiscal responsibility.

Mike Klein is also fair and his standon many of the issues are ones weagree with but, we do have a problemwith his adamant stand on the rate ofgrowth proposal because there aresome facets about it that we feeldefinitely should have been reworkedbefore going to the polls.

While it is a difficult decision, JoeGault will have the ISLANDER vote.

STATE REPRESENTATIVE, SEAT 91

NUCKOLLSRepublican PHILIP BENNETT, TREASURER

For four years I've hadthe honor of serving as yourState Representative fromthe 90th. District. Duringthat four years my mainconcern has been to reversethe "step child" imageSouthwest Florida has bornefor so many years, in terms .of attention from our stategovernment. I truly believethat today we have over-come that image.

Where four years ago theonly interstate highway wehad was an unconnectedbridge across theCaloosahatehee, today wehave $93 million worth ofroad construction, much ofwhich will be ready for usein February, 1979. Where

four years ago we hadvirtually no assistance fromTallahassee in schoolconstruction, today we havethree more schools, CapeCoral High, San CarlosElementary and BonitaMiddle, all under way withState aid, which I was ableto help engineer by a changein the State law.

Where four years ago, noState funds for purchase ofenv i ronmenta l ly en-dangered lands had beenspent in Lee or CharlotteCounties, today we see acommitment for nearly $20million, and thousands ofacres of precious wetlandsand islands preserved for all

times.

While working for, andreceiving these State funds,I have consistently opposedany increase in your Statesales tax, believing that byoffering effectiverepresentation for you in theState Capitol, we can haveour fair share, and ac-complish reasonable goals,without asking our citizensto pay more. And that'sexactly what has happeI believe it's a good recordover these four years, aresponsible record, and onethat I hope justifies thevoters continued support ofmy candidacy for re-election.

My deepest concernscenter around the questionof priorities. I am wellaware that there are limitedfunds provided to run theLee County School Systemand I am a strong advocateof fiscal responsibility.However, I believe that ifpriorities were in theirproper perspective, therewould be adequate funds toeliminate double sessions,

provide adequate textbooks,provide air-conditionedclassrooms, and provide aliving wage for teachers.The present Board membershave failed to solve theseproblems. Instead, theirpriorities have been to builda beautiful new air-conditioned administrationbuilding, increase thenumber of administratorswhile classes remainovercrowded, and attend, attaxpayers' expense, amultitude of out-of-stateconferences.

When I began my careerseven years ago, the school Iworked in was overcrowded,did not have adequate

textbooks, and had severediscipline problems. Sevenyears later, these conditionsstill exist in that school aswell as schools throughoutLee County.

The time has come for thepeople of Lee County to electan individual to the SchoolBoard who is dedicated toquality education and whohas first hand experience inthe system.

Lee County needs roads.We need a ComprehensivePlan. We need to develop amore realistic operatingbudget. We must establishsound Capitol ImprovementPriorities. These are seriousproblems. But they areproblems we all can iden-tify. The question is "Whohas the leadership toprovide solutions?"

In other words, who hasthe knowledge, the ex-perience, the wisdom andmaturity, and the com-mittment?

As to knowledge, for thelast five years I served as amember of the Lee CountyPlanning Commission andhave worked with eachmajor division of CountyGovernment. I know theirprograms, understand their

"oblems and can im-£"diately contribute toward

Harry Rodda

their solutions. I've studiedin depth road programs, ourcounty budget and variouselements of our Com-prehensive Plan. Thus Ibring to this position theknowledge few ' 'FirstTime" candidates have.

As to experience in the twoyears I served as PlanningCommission Chairman, I'vetravelled our county fromBonita Springs to BocaGrande, from Sanibel toLehigh Acres. I've sharedmy yiews with the peopleand they in turn have sharedtheirs with me. I understandtheir concerns^ and amprepared to represent theirviews as their" elected of-ficial.

I have over 15 years as abusiness manager includingfour years operating myown company. I know how toapply sound business

principles to governmentoperation and can use thisability to effectively reducean operating budget that'sgrown 400 percent in justfive years.

At age 35 I've held 16separate positions ofleadership. I feel those thatgave me this responsibilitydid so because they believedI had the wisdom andmaturity to provide ef-fective leadership.

The five years I served onthe Planning Commission,averaging 10 to 15 hours perweek as an unpaid volunteershould reflect on my com-mittment to our community.Additionally, I've resignedas president of my companyand will fully divest myselfof all stock once elected.

On November 7th I hopeyou'll agree that theleadership we now need isRodda Leadership.

As a candidate for StateRepresentative of District91, I would like to take thisopportunity to express toyou my views of issues ofvital concern to the citizensof Southwest Florida.

I believe that we have avery fragile environmentand am opposed to the "wallto wall concrete"development attitude. WhenI am elected, I will introducelegislation to provide for thepreservation of trees and

green areas prior to landsbeing developed.

Presently there islegislation that allows citiesto set aside certain land foreconomic development withthe taxes from that land putinto an escrow account andlater used to retire revenuebonds. The system is unfairto small cities and' unin-corporated areas thatcannot afford to take landoff the tax rolls. I proposeintroduction of a Tax

Reinvestment IncentivePlan (TRIP). My plan wouldentail state monies beinggranted to small cities anunincorporated areas. Sucha plan would stimulatebusiness development byhelping small cities offsetthe cost of building in-dustrial parks and new courtfacilities. The obvious resultwill be more jobs.

The recent trend in at-taining higher education formany of the children in

Southwest Florida and theState has been to get out ofthe State.Once that happensmany of our bright youngminds never return. Theresulting effect isdangerous. We have a"brain drain" of enormousproportion. I propose twothings: first, reutilizing ouremphasis on vocationaleducation for those studentswho do not wish a highereduca t ion ; secondly,reassessing our presentstructure of highereducation in order toreverse that "brain drain."

Presently there arealmost 100 DemocraticLegislators in Tallahassee.We have only one Democratin Southwest Florida. Theother six are Republican.That lone Democrat hasproven effective in fouryears when six Republicanshave been virtually inef-fective. We have an op-portunity to double oureffectiveness by putting aproven effective person inoffice.

I am presently practicinglaw in Lee County. However,

prior to that I worked for ayear and a half securingfederal and state grants forLee County.-1 succeeded inre tu rn ing near ly$15,000,000.00 of your taxdollars in the form of grants.In other words, I know howto get things done ef-fectively.

ELECTION 1978Public Defender

20th Judicial Circuit

Republican

Xavier "X" Fernandez,41, of Fort Myers is a can-didate for the office ofPublic Defender for the 20thJudicial Circuit. The

Xavier Fernandez

veteran former. prosecutoraccepted the bid to run forthe office which covers thecounties of Lee, Collier,Charlotte, Hendry and

Glades, after being urged bythe Republican ExecutiveCommittee of Charlotte,Collier and Lee Counties.

During the past six years

Fernandez won 24 of 26cases he tried, includingmurder, smuggling andpublic official fraud cases.He established the first full-time state attorney's officesin Charlotte, GL es andHendry counties.

Born at the U. S. MilitaryAcademy at West Point, N.Y., where his father, anative of Spain, was aprofessor of Spanish,Fernandez was raised inFort Lauderdale. He thenreturned to New York Statewhere he was graduatedfrom Siena College, cumlaude, in Economics. Helater received a Master'sDegree in businessmanagement from the State

University of New York atAlbany.

He worked for the StateUniversity of New York forseven years, serving inseveral posts, most notablyas business manager for theState University College atCortland, and Director ofBusiness Affairs at the StateUniversity College at OldWestbury.N.Y.

He returned to Floridaand was graduated fromStetson University Collegeof Law in 1972. He thenjoined the State Attorney'sOffice and was the Chief ofLegal Affairs.

Fernandez has statedduring his campaign that he

would:1.. Screen defendants

carefully to insure that onlythe poor or indigent areprovided services.

2. Provide an attorneywithin 24 hours to thosecharged with a seriouscrime to expedite oreliminate costly courtproceedings.

3. Should a defendant befound guilty, he wouldrecommend to the defendantthat he offer to payrestitution as a condition ofprobation. This would be astep towards the defendant'srehabilitation and wouldreimburse the innocentvictim of the crime for hisexpenses.

There are eight goodreasons why I believe youshould re-elect me yourPublic Defender:

1. NINE YEARS EX-PERIENCE. Doug Midgleyknows what he's doing. Hegot his on-the-job trainingwhen first appointed PublicDefender 9 years ago. Hislegal, administrative andfinancial expertise havegrown with SouthwestFlorida.

2. THRIFTY ANDRESPONSIBLE HAN-DLING OF TAX DOLLARS.Doug Midgley doesn't goback to county com-missioners for more money -- just the reverse. Fromthree years ago his annualbudget in Lee County isdown 16 percent, CharlotteCounty down 48 percent,Collier, Hendry and GladesCounties - 0 percent in-crease. His total legislativebudget is 14th lowest out ofthe 20 judicial circuits in

Florida even though thejudges appoint him to morethan 6,000 cases per year.

3. PROVEN AD-MINISTRATIVE ABILITY.Doug Midgley staffs andsupervises offices in Lee,Collier, Charlotte, andHendry Counties withGlades County being ser-viced from LaBelle. Heaccomplishes this byse lec t ing personnelcarefully, precisely definingindividual responsibilitiesand delegating authority. Inaddition to the caseload hepersonally represents, othercases are reviewed to makesure they were properly andfairly handled.

4. INTEREST INJUVENILES. FioridaPublic Defenders areresponsible for the defenseof children under 18 whocannot afford a lawyer. Hisstaff has handled better than650 juvenile cases in the pastyear. In addition, as a

member of the CriminalJustice Advisory Com-mission, he was in-strumental in seeing that theBig Brothers - organizationreceived a $10,000 LawEnforcement AssistanceAdministration grant.

5. PROTECTION FORTHE ELDERLY. In ad-dition to criminal cases,Doug Midgley has servednumerous elderly citizenswho have been threatenedwith hospitalization againsttheir will in state mentalinstitutions unjustly. Hepersonally assures thepublic that the defense ofsuch people is of utmostimportance.

6. RESPECT FOR HISPERSONAL INTEGRITY.Doug Midgley has earnedthe respect, admiration andcooperation of judges,lawyers and law en-forcement officialsthroughout the five countiesof his circuit. They respect

him because of hisdedication to doing the bestjob possible, but moreimportantly, because of hispersonal ethics and in-tegrity.

7. RECOGNITION BY HISFELLOW PUBLICDEFENDERS. On July 28,1978, Doug Midgley wasunanimously re-electedtreasurer of the Florida

Publ ic DefendersAssociation. They alsoadopted a resolution com-mending him for "his highstanding and large con-tributions to the legalprofession, for his efforts tosave tax dollars and topromote crime preventionmethods among juveniles."

8. MAINTAINESTABLISHED POLICYOF AROUND-THE-CLOCK

* Fernandez will provide an attorney within 24 hours to those charged with a seriouscrime to expedite or eliminate costly court proceedings.

* Should a defendant be found guilty, Fernandez will encourage a program of restitutionto the victim, and reimbursement to the County for court costs as a step toward rehabilita-tion and in an attempt to have the Public Defender's Office pay for itself.

* Fernandez will personally represent defendants in important cases.

State Treasurer and

Insurance Commissioner

Democrat

ELECTION 1978

The short time I have,erved as your StateTreasurer InsuranceCommissioner has been themost demanding and, yet,the most rewarding ex-perience of my career inpublic service.

When I took office inNovember of 1976,1 pledgedto be an activist in searchingout and combatting the rootcauses of high auto in-surance rates..... This led to my notices ofDecember, 1977, toautomobile insurancecompanies to return excesspremiums in the form of

Bill Gunterrate reductions, premiumrefunds or dividend creditsto policy holders.

More than $60 million hasbeen realized under thisprogram, and we arecontinuing to monitor todetermine whether ad-ditional sums should bereturned in the monthsahead.

Our successful statewidepetition drive forced areluctant Legislature toeffectively address the autoinsurance crisis throughneeded statutory and tortreform. The anticipatedsavings will be passed on to

than 50,000 consumerinquiries and complaints.Moreover, the licenses ofmore than 60 agents andcompanies have beenrevoked for improper orillegal business practices.

I pledged to demand fairand equal treatment ofwomen in insurance mat-ters. We have subsequentlydeveloped new regulationsbanning unfairdiscrimination in insurance

matters' solely because ofthe sex or marital status ofthe insurance consumer.

In the coming years, I amcommitted to:

- An audit of insurancecompany profits for theyears 1976 through 1978, andsubsequent years. Excessprofit will be returned topolicy holders.

- Development of acomprehensive workmen'scompensation reform

package fair to workers, andemployers alike.

Development ofproposals^ to maximizehealth insurance benefitswhile reducing unnecessaryand duplicative costs.

In seeking reelection, l amaware of the challenges thatlie ahead, and I am con-fident of my ability to meetthem. Today, as in 1976, Iwill not waiver from thatresponsibility.

on insurance fraud by ac-tivating the newlyauthorized Fraud Divisionof the Insurance Depart-ment. More than 900 in-vestigations have beeninitiated through ourstatewide offices.

Republican

I am seeking the post off i Treasurer because Ifew I am the best qualifiedcandidate seeking that post,and I have the confidence ofa large percentage of thecitizens of the state. Myextensive background inbusiness and particularly infinance and public servicegives me the experiencerequired in this post.

The major "consumer"problem within the controlof the Treasurer's Office isJie cost of insurance, auto,Workmens Compensation,business and home fire andcasualty. While many of thefactors that contribute to therising costs of insurance aretotally beyond the control ofthe State Government (i. e.,general inflation) there aremany steps that can betaken by the State Treasurerto help hold these costs, andperhaps even reduce themsomewhat. '

The problem of insurancefraud, for example, can becombatted by utilizing theresources and regulationsavailable to the Treasurer tovigorously investigate andeffectively prosecute fraudcases.

Lower automobile ratescan best be achieved

Jeff Latham

through the enforcement ofcurrent Florida 'mandatoryinsurance' laws. Greatercooperation to this end isneeded between theTreasurer's office and theother state agencies in-volved. Additionally, by theeffective regulation of in-surance companies, com-petition within the state canbe encouraged which in turnwill help curb spirallinginsurance costs.

One of my major goalswould be to establish a blue-ribbon panel of represen-

tatives from all segments ofgovernment, industry andthe public to thoroughlyexamine all aspects of theinsurance industry in thestate. I would anticipate thatrecommendations wouldrange from improvementsin the administration of theTreasurer's office to meansof promoting "safety"education. Any step that canbe taken, or encouraged, bythe office of the Treasurerthat would improve theadministration and deliveryof insurance and insurancebenefits will be considered.

REVISION NO. 7 - This is a pot-pourri of finance and taxation mattersthat is sometimes called "the specialinterest section". Among othertechnical changes in the current Ar-ticles VII and X, it would:

Exempt privately-used publicproperty such as race tracks andairline facilities from taxation;

Permit tax reductions on stock-in-trade and livestock, historic property,and solar energy systems;

Permit revaluation of property everytwo years rather than require suchevery year;

Authorize the use of tax concessionsfor redevelopment of slum areas;
