'Gulf County's Golden Anniversary9 « Theme Gulf County Celebrates Fifty Years Of Golden Success, Progress and Prosperity Everyone in St. Joe could hardly wait until June 6, 1974. This day be- gan a nine day celebration of Gulf County’s fiftieth anniversary of exis- tence. This celebration was filled with many activities and numerous events of all sorts. There were tournaments. Parades. Air Shows. Art Shows and nothing short of forty major events. This an- niversary celebration was enjoyed fully by everyone. Everyone had an important role to play according to his own choice. The success of this Golden Anniversary has to be ac- credited to a large number of students. Gulf County was carved out of Cal- houn County on June 6, 1925 mak- ing it one of Florida’s youngest counties. Written history dates back to 1498 when Amerigo (Americus) Vespucci, along with other Italian. Spanish and Portuguese conquista- dors explored the region. Spanish sites have been found that predate the founding of St. Augus- tine indicating Spanish interest in the area in the early I500’s. French involvement of the early 1700’s is evidenced by Fort Creve-coure. English influence was evident in the early I800’s. Control of the area changed constantly. St. Joseph 1835-1841. has much his- torical significance, being the site of Florida's first constitutional in 1838. and of the states first and third steam railroads. The town’s demise by Yellow fever, fire, and storm sev- eral times ended the era. Salt Works along with beautiful St. Joseph's Bay made a great contribution to the Confederacy during the Civil War. Wewahitchka was founded in 1875. Modern day Port St. Joe was founded in 1903. Construction of St. Joe’s Paper Company’s huge plant in 1935 brought about a rebirth of the area. The Historical society under the su- pervision of Mr. Jesse Stone has at- tributed a great deal into the success of the Golden Anniversary. Mr. Stone serves as President over the Historical society, and was always willing to supply the Monument Staff with valuable information con- cerning the celebration. Right: Everyone was filled with lhal Golden Spirit , but four members of the Senior Class Executive Board ‘put it all together' and came up with a bit more celebration fever And decided to extend some Brotherhood and hospitably P S. One member became a little too spirited’ Welcome! To Where The Pine Is King Gulf And The Fun County Supreme Today Today Gulf County is a thriving, growing area of industrial and rec- reational resources with nostalgic reminders of a glorious past and a promising future. Port S. Joe. Wewahitchka and Mex- ico Beach, principal municipalities in the area abide peacefully in the “Last Frontier”, away from the hustle and bustle of large cities. The quietness and serenity is a courtesy of the citizens. Wewahitchka lies on the famous Dead Lakes and is often called the “fishing capital” of the world and rightly so. Fishing in the many lakes, rivers and streams is at its best. The community with a heart welcomes you. Port St. Joe. “Constitution City”, lo- cated on beautiful St. Joseph’s Bay is the heart of county industry. Busy as a bee, but with peaceful dignity, permits maximum utilization of the vast stores of natural resources. Mexico Beach at the western edge of Gulf County has miles of Mir- acle Strip”-World's Safest beaches. Motels, rental units, and recrea- tional vehicle parks are available. Water sports and all types of fishing are supported by marinas, piers and charter boats. i Theme Landmarks Of Beauty Surrounds Gulf County If we only have love, then tomorrow will dawn And the days of our years Will rise that mom.

And sun and stars Forever more have set, The things which we grieved Will flash before us Out of life’s dark night. As stars shine Most in deeper tints of blue And we shall see How God’s plans are right And how what seemed reproof Was love most true And we shall sec how. While we frown and sigh. God’s plans go on As best for you and mfe; How, when we called. He heeded not our cry. Because His Wisdom To the end could see. And even as prudent parents disallow Too much of sweet craving babyhoods So God, perhaps Is keeping from us now Life’s sweetest things Because it seemeth good. And if, sometimes Commingled with life’s wine. We find the wormwood And rebel shrink. Be sure a wiser hand Than yours or mine Pours out the potion For our lips to drink And if some friend You love is lying low Where human kisses Cannot teach his face Oh, do not Gloom The loving father so But wear your sorrow With obedient grace And you shall shortly know Is not the sweetest Gift Ciod sends His friend. And that sometimes. Ihe subtle pall of death Conceals the fairest boon His love can send. If we could push ajar The gates of Life And stand within and All God’s working see, Wc could interpret All this doubt and strife And for each Mystery ... could find a Key. But not to-day. Lhen be content, pour heart; And God's plans. Like lillies pure and white, unfold; We must not tear The dose-shut leaves apart Time will reveal The chalice of gold And if, through patient toil We reach the land Where tired feet with sandals loosed. May rest. When we shall clearly see and Understand.

Juniors “Spirit The Junior Class of 1974-75 is a class to be remembered. Their clev- erness and hard work has made them outstanding in many aspects of school. Many Juniors took part in sports and clubs around the school, and all looked forward to the Prom, class rings, and other events which make the year special. Magazines, football and basketball concessions helped make the Jr.-Sr. Banquet and Prom one of the best ever. The sponsors of the Junior class worked almost as hard as the students. Only because of their help was the class well organized.

Mike Scott, Danny Thomas, 69 Bay 59 Mike Todd). Not only did the team 49 Walton High 58 have a great group of talented play- 57 Walton High 58 ers but also a new head coach. Mr. 71 Blounistown 74 William Lane Who in previous 68 Chipley 75 years coached Washington High’s 74 Rutherford 52 Junior Varsity cagcsters. This year’s 65 Crest view 71 team of Tiger Sharks cagers posted 60 Famu 59 a 15-12 record. 61 Bay 69 68 Marianna 63 The Tiger Sharks record is not as 53 Mosley 68 impressive as their schedule. All 77 Apalach 76 through the season the Tiger Sharks 60 Chipley 53 had to fight an uphill battle against 50 Mosley 52 their schedule, which consisted of 110 Apalach 73 mainly 3-A and 4-A schools. This 62 Carter-Parramore 49 year’s team, which consisted of West Coats Conference Tournament seven players who were inexperi- 58 Marianna 54 ence in varsity action, continuously 57 Walton High 50 tried throughout the tough season to 55 Crest view 59 regroup itself. The Tiger Sharks fi- 75 Chattahooche 62 nally put it all together in the latter (District Tournaments) part of the season. 56 Blountstown 66 136 A Tough Season As They Post A 15-12 Record Then the Tiger Sharks, with a 2-5 record in the conference, beat Mar- ianna in the first game of the con- ference tournament in our Coli- seum. The next night the Tiger Sharks traveled to Defuniak Springs to upset Walton Sr. High in the sec- ond game of the conference tourna- ment 57-50 and to battle the Crest- view High Bulldogs right down to the wire as the Tiger Sharks bowed to the Bulldogs 59-55 in the cham- pionship game of the conference tournament The Tiger Sharks, who were not expected to win anything in their conference walked away with the runner's up trophy and a team which had finally regrouped itself under the new management and leadership of the new coach. Mr. Lane, who is famous for ex- pressing the term “Hawk to his team, brought them out of the regu- lar season by clocking his home- town, Apalachicola, to the tune of 110-73. The Next few weeks saw the Tiger Sharks work hard and determined to get ready for the district tourna- ment. only to be disappointed to find out that the district tournament would not be held in the coliseum. This disappointment, did not slop the Tiger Sharks as they traveled to Carter-Parramore. to beat the Chat- tahooche Yellow Jackets in the first game of the districts, and to see Blountstown Tigers squeeze by the Carter-Parramore Lions 70-69. The championship game of the tourna- ment saw Port St. Joe's Tiger Sharks go against the Blountstow n Tigers, a game in which the Tiger Sharks could never get on track. But the second half saw senior Ernest Pit- tman lead the Tiger Sharks in a great come-back performance, which was to be his last game as a Tiger Shark before he and a few other players fouled out of the cru- cial and last basketball game of the season. The Tiger Sharks still did not give up as they saw several rallies fall short of their aim of taking the first step toward the slate tournament. But in a great effort the Tiger Sharks finally fell to a stronger Blountstown team 56-66. As a re- peat of the beginning of the season the Tiger Sharks ended the 1974-75 basketball season with a great elTort and great determination. Next year's team, which will be lead by three returning players. Carey Dan- iels. Johnny Jenkins, and Ronald Daniels, who saw plenty of action, will continue to keep up the trend of great effort and determination of the '74-'75 team with the help of head coach William Lane.

Baseball Sharks Have A Winning Season And Go All The Way To The Final Game Of The State Tournaments The 1974-75 baseball season was a very successful one for the mighty “Tiger-Sharks”. The sharks started off with a winning season and main- tained their ground, while losing only a few games all alone. This year’s team ended the season with a winning record of 24-8. The Sharks looked very impressive as they walked away with the winners’ trophies for the Sub-District. Dis- trict and Regional tournaments. The mighty sharks fought hard to go all the way and win the state finals, but defeat was ahead of them as they bowed down to Santa Fe in the final game of the State tournaments. Through the strives of teamwork, ability and will-power the ’74-’75 sharks proves the results of togeth- erness. Making All Conference were John Owens, Mark Wimberely, and Bruce May. Keef Pettis was the team’s leading hitter. Harlon Had- dock received the award for Most Improved Player. Mark Wimberely received the honor of being Most Valuable Player for the season. The sharks seem to be setting a pattern for themselves, each year they go a little farther. This year’s team only losses five players. Let’s hope they carry on the work of the ’74-75 mighty sharks.

The 1974-75 junior high track team did not come away with any first places during the season, but the attitude of the coach was very positive. Coach Wil- liam Wood, believes that his team did give it all they had and held nothing back. He went on to say that in the future he is looking for- ward to having a very successful track team. The jr. hi track team worked very hard to fit into the shark program of sports. And in doing so they emphasized what it means to be baby tigersharks. In Track Kneeling: C arl Fox, Michcal Harris.
