BONIFAY — Holmes Coun-ty Chamber of Commerce Coordinator Julia Bulling-ton spoke on services the Chamber provides and gave updates on upcoming events during the monthly Chamber Breakfast on Jan. 23.

Bullington said there are a variety of services the Chamber wants to provide local business owners and potential business owners, one of which is that a rep-resentative from The Small Business Association visits on a weekly basis for one-on-one sessions with busi-ness owners and potential business owners.

“He lets those who are interested in becoming business owners know if they are ready to invest in

building their business or if there’s certain steps need-ed before moving forward,” Bullington said. “He’s also very good at fi nding grants if there are grants available for whatever it is you might

be doing, especially in the area of agritourism right now; there seems to be a little money out there for that.”

She said the Chamber also has a counselor who

comes from Bay County for veterans.

“Believe it or not, we’ve got a quite a few vets in Hol-mes County who are suffer-ing from PTSD (post-trau-matic stress disorder) or other issues, and they need a place to talk in confi dence and in quiet, and they can meet here, one on one,” Bul-lington said. “Sometimes it’s and hour or an hour and a half, and sometimes we have the whole family because the whole family is involved in the process.”

Many small things are also going on in the Cham-ber of Commerce building from day to day, Bullington said.

“Pho’s, as you know, just moved from one building to another,” she said. “It took a lot of number crunching, a lot of working with one another to move from 1,700 square feet to 20,000 square

feet where the bills are go-ing to quadruple and trying to fi gure out what that was going to take and how much it’s going to make, how many more people and how much more utilities, and we actually sit down and work it out on a form, and we said we could make this work.”

as well as an oriental rug.“The cost is $65 per

couple or $35 per individu-al, and all proceeds go to-ward a shelter for victims of Domestic Violence in our community,” fundrais-ing chairman Crystal Gery said. “Jeans and boots are OK, though a jacket is required. People won-der why we want a shelter here, where they would be close to their abuser, and people don’t realize that in order to get away from them right now, they would have to quit their job, pull their child out of school and move away from everyone they know, and we should be supporting them as a community.”

For more information, call Gery at 768-3739 or Missy Lee 596-3288.

For more information on the Holmes County Cham-ber of Commerce, call Bul-lington at 547-4682.

Alvis said. “One thing that, we believe, is going to im-pact this side of the river — the biggest to hit Holmes County in a long time — and that is the widening of State Road 79, north of I-10. Your Chamber of Commerce is working diligently with the Development Commission, the County Commission and the City of Bonifay to take a very active role in that.”

He said he just hoped it would come to light soon how all those entities would be coming together.

“It’s coming straight down the middle of down-town, and it’ll affect almost over half the businesses in this room,” Alvis said. “As business owners, we

need to voice that, and your Chamber of Commerce is that voice. If, in any way, you have an idea, please share.”

Bullington added that it is also about businesses con-necting for a common goal in supporting one another.

“It’s easier to do busi-ness with someone that I’ve shared bread with,” Bul-lington said. “It’s easier to do business with someone I know lives in the same community, and I know that we’re supporting his family with his business because it’s something that’s impor-tant to us.”

She said the upcoming seventh annual Holmes County Chamber of Com-

merce Golf Tournament will be 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. March 7 at the Dogwood Lakes Golf Course.

“It is a lot of fun, and I think it’s the camaraderie that I notice more than any-thing else,” Bullington said. “People are just having a good time. Even though you’re there as a business and you’re trying to impress your clients, you’re still hav-ing a good time while you promote your company.”

She said it is $300 per team, which includes golf, breakfast, golf cart rental, the opportunity at a $10,000 hole and an opportunity at $2,000 in cash prizes.

“We’ve added a couple of different things over the

years; this year there will be a putting contest, so be-tween your first nine and your second nine, you’re go-ing to have a chance to putt a hole-in-one, and that will be a cash prize.”

For more information on the golf tournament, call Bullington at 547-4682.

Domestic Violence task Force FunDraiser

The Washington-Holmes County Domestic Violence Task Force will have a for-mal fundraiser at 6 p.m. Friday, Feb. 7, at the Wash-ington County Agricultural Center in Chipley.

Catering will be done by Missy Lee Catering, with dinner and dancing and guest Master of Ceremonies being Misty Huff-Morgan of the Misty and Jerome In The Morning on 95.5 FM.

“The teachers primarily affected with the new state requirements are ESE (ex-ceptional student educa-tion) teachers,” Dixon said. “Teachers who were consid-ered qualified in their field before the new state require-ments are no longer fully qualified and now have to be certified in all the areas of study that they teach in. I as-sure you, this is an issue that is statewide.”

Board member Debbie Kolmetz also recommended that all students who re-ceived a 5 on their recent FCAT should be recognized.

Chairman Rusty Wil-liams also told the board they would be visiting a school in Madison County on Friday, Feb. 7, which is a similar de-sign to the new elementary and middle school to be built next to Holmes County High School.

“We’re going to review the school’s structure and func-tion and discuss any possible changes we want to see in our design,” Williams said.

in a verbal altercation, which quickly turned into a physical alterca-tion. The two men fought in the kitchen area, after which Shamus Tindol displayed a pocket knife and stabbed his brother eight times, according to the report.

Police believe alco-hol played a role in this incident. Both subjects were taken to the Emer-gency Room of North-west Florida Communi-ty Hospital, where they were treated for their injuries.

Tindol was charged with aggravated battery and domestic violence.

The Chipley Police Department asks any-one with any information to call 638-6310 or Crime Stoppers of Washington County at 638-TIPS.

HOLMES COUNTY — Hol-mes County 4-H announced only 25 camp spots remain for Holmes County youth to attend 4-H Camp Tim-poochee this year.

“With the cold weather, are you dreaming of sum-mertime already?” asked Niki Crawson, Holmes County 4-H agent. “School will be out before we know it. No more homework or studying for tests, but that doesn’t mean your child’s learning has to stop for the next two and a half months.”

Canoeing, swimming, ar-chery, meeting new friends, marine and environmental science can all be found in one place for one week this summer. 4-H Camp Tim-poochee, located on the bay in Niceville, is just wait-ing to be explored by your child.

Holmes County youth, ages 8-12, are eligible to at-tend 4-H Camp Timpoochee as campers. Youth ages 13

and up are eligible to apply to attend camp as a Camp Counselor or Counselor-in-Training. Youth do not have to be a current 4-H member to attend camp. Youth from Holmes County will camp June 9-13, 2014. The total cost for camp is $250, which includes all meals, trans-portation to and from camp, daily canteen, overnight accommodations for four nights and a camp T-shirt. Assistance for camp fees is available for those who meet criteria. For more in-formation regarding fee assistance, contact the UF/IFAS Holmes County Ex-tension Office at 547-1108.

4-H Camp Timpoochee offers traditional camping activities with the addition of some new and exciting activities. Because of its location on the bay, marine science studies are em-phasized in a modern lab equipped with microscopes and saltwater aquariums. Recreation activities in-clude swimming, volley-ball, archery and games.

Campers have free time to choose their activities and set up games of volleyball, softball or basketball. At night, campers participate in the tradition of campfire, when campers sing favorite camp songs, participate in skits and games.

While your child is at camp, they will experience group living in a cabin set-ting where important life skills are learned. Skills that all kids and adults need, such as getting along with others, consideration for those around you and

doing your part, will be ex-perienced at camp. Camp-ers assume full responsi-bility for their cabin and compete for the daily clean cabin award as well as help with dining room chores and general camp chores in a team atmosphere.

4-H Camp Timpoochee features air-conditioned log cabins with bunks for 8-10 campers and attached bath facilities between bunkhouses. The staff is well trained in dealing with children and camping programs and nutritious, well-balanced meals are prepared three times a day for campers in the air-con-ditioned cafeteria.

“It is the goal of Holmes County 4-H for your child to enjoy a week at 4-H Camp Timpoochee in a relaxed and fun learning environ-ment,” Crawson said. “Only 25 camp spots remain for Holmes County youth to at-tend 4-H Camp Timpoochee this year. Be sure to reserve your child’s spot as soon as possible as the remaining

spots will go fast.” Spots for camp will re-

quire a $50 non-refundable deposit, with the remaining camp balance due by May 24. If necessary, a camp payment plan can be set up for you. If you would like more information, please the Holmes County 4-H Ex-tension Office, at 547-1108 or email [email protected]. The 4-H Council and Institute of Food and Agri-cultural Sciences are dedi-cated to bringing reward-ing events and activities into Holmes County for all youth to participate in and learn by doing.

4-H is a community of young people ages 5-18 across America who are learning leadership, citi-zenship and life skills. 4-H programs are available to young people in all 50 states, U.S. territories and U.S. military installations worldwide, regardless of gender, race, creed, color, religion or disability. For more information on 4-H, visit holmes.ifas.ufl.edu.

Summer fun at 4-H Camp Timpoochee

GaiNESviLLE (AP) — Flor-ida coach Billy Donovan has done all he can to quell expectations for highly touted fresh-man Chris Walker.

Last week, Don-ovan made it clear that the 6-foot-10 Walker won’t be Kevin Garnett this season. On Monday, the coach insisted Walker won’t play like Wilt Chamberlain when he makes his debut tonight against Missouri.

But Walker will get on the court for the first time since arriving on campus in mid-December, which should help the third-ranked Gators (19-2, 8-0 Southeastern Conference) as they near the halfway mark of league play and start getting ready for the postseason.

“The expectations on him as a player are way, way up here, and he can’t reach them,” Donovan said. “He can’t. I just want people to know. This is not going to be a guy that you’re going to say, ‘Billy, you really, really down-played this thing. This guy came out and played like Wilt Chamberlain.’ It’s not going to happen.

“He’s a good player that’s got a lot in front of him, a lot of growing and maturing that’s got to go on. I really don’t know how much he can do. He can go in there and do some real-ly, really good things and really help our team or he could go out there and really be lost in the game and get going too fast and the emotion of the game will overwhelm him.”

Florida has not made Walker available for in-terviews. School officials anticipate Walker will an-swer questions after the game.

Donovan gave no indi-cation how much Walker will play against the Tigers (16-5, 4-4), saying it will be “predicated on what he’s doing to help our team with foul trouble, fatigue and those things.”

Teammates said Walker is eager to finally get from under the NCAA cloud and off the bench.

“He’s extremely excit-ed,” center Pat Young said. “Just think about every-thing he’s gone through. To get to now and it’s fi-nally here as far as school, things he had to do over the summer, missing the first semester, finally here and going through prac-tice and then not hear-ing from the NCAA. It’s

probably a 15 on a scale of 1 to 10 how excited he is right now.”

A forward from Bonifay in Florida’s panhandle, Walker sat out 12 games, or 40 percent of the season, because the NCAA determined he “received pref-erential treatment from five people, in-cluding two agents.”

The NCAA said Walker and people close to him accepted free cellphones and service, airfare, lodg-ing, meals and apparel while he was a prospect.

He was ordered to do-nate the $270 received from the agents to a char-ity of his choice and serve 80 hours of community service.

Walker, who failed to qualify academically and spent the fall taking online classes to gain eligibility, joined the team Dec. 14 and has been practicing since. He is a talented shot-blocker, rebounder and finisher who won the dunk contest at the McDonald’s All-American game last year. Since ar-riving on campus, he has gained about 10 pounds while learning Donovan’s complex offensive and de-fensive schemes.

But is he ready to make an impact?

“He is definitely a guy who brings a lot of energy ... as far as running, jump-ing around, being active and grabbing a bunch of boards,” Young said. “You shouldn’t have too high expectations. This is the guy’s first college game he gets to play in and we’ll see how he does from there.”

The Gators could use some help.

Forward Casey Prath-er, the team’s leading scorer, has been slowed by a sprained left ankle. And guard DeVon Walker sat out the last game with a hip pointer. Even with both healthy, the Gators have had just eight scholarship players available. Walker makes it nine, adding some much-needed depth and possibly increasing Florida’s chances of mak-ing another deep run in the NCAA tournament.

“He can be the best runner in the world, the best jumper in the world and the best rebounder in the world, but if he can’t do the things inside the game plan of what we need to get done, then it becomes very difficult to play,” Donovan said.

NOTE: Anna is the daughter of Scott and Jill Braxton of Vernon. She attends Vernon Elementary School. She has three older sisters Kynley, Meagan and Kendall. Grandparents are Jack and Angia Morris, Virginia Davis Braxton.

Dear Editor,My 8-year-old daughter

Anna has severe epilepsy. Anna spent most of 2010 hospitalized between Children’s Hospital in Birmingham and Miami Children’s Hospital. At times, Anna was having more than 40 seizures a day despite aggressive treatment. In June 2010, after an extensive evaluation at Children’s Hospital in Birmingham, I received a call from Anna’s doctor telling me she was unable to determine where the seizures were originating from and we would need to continue with medication treatments.

Anna continued to have uncontrolled seizures that required continual hospitalization. It was obvious that the seizures were causing brain damage. At age 4, Anna was regressing. I will never forget what it was like to have to leave my child for her to be life-fl ighted or transported by ambulance as a result of intractable epilepsy.

In August 2010, Anna had another extensive evaluation at Miami Children’s Hospital. It was determined her seizures were originating from the left parietal lobe. Later that month, Anna had brain surgery to remove a portion of the area that was causing the seizures.

Within days of the surgery she began having seizures again. Because of the uncontrolled seizures, Anna was fl own back to Miami Children’s Hospital.

At this time, we were advised by Anna’s doctors she would be paralyzed and unable to talk if they removed any more tissue. Therefore, the focus has been on other alternatives to control her seizures.

Anna has taken more than 15 anticonvulsant medications and more than six medications to assist with behavioral control. She currently takes three seizure and two behavioral medications daily. Anna also has a vagus nerve stimulator surgically implanted in her chest.

Despite the surgeries and medication, Anna continues to have seizures on a nightly basis. This is an improvement compared to her state of being in 2010. The medication does not come without side effects and the question regarding the long-term effects.

Right now, many Floridians are trying to get medical marijuana treatment available in Florida. This would allow

parents to treat children affected by illnesses such as Anna’s with Cannabidiol (CBD). CBD is also known as Charlotte’s Web.

CBD is one of the cannabinoids found in cannabis. It is a major constituent of the plant, second to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and represents up to 40 percent in its extracts. Compared with THC, CBD is psychoactive but not intoxicating and is considered to have a wider scope of medical applications than THC, including epilepsy, multiple sclerosis spasms, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, nausea, convulsion and infl ammation, as well as inhibiting cancer cell growth.

When I look at the side effects of Anna’s medication and the obvious brain damage that has occurred, I cannot see how CBD could be any more harmful. The risk of brain surgery and an implant far exceed the risk associated with the utilization of CBD.

It has been said that if we want our children to have access to Charlotte’s

Web then we should move to Colorado where it is available. I am a nurse and my husband operates our family farm. Our support system, including family, lives close by. We could not imagine moving Anna away from such. Anna has lived in the same home all of her life and has had the same caregiver since 2010. She cannot write her name nor does she know her ABC’s. Developmentally she is on the level of a 4 year old. Routines are vitally important to Anna. To move would be very traumatic and would not be in Anna’s best interest.

As you read the many articles and hear the news of stories such as Anna’s, please consider what the benefi ts of CBD could be. Children like Anna are already taking controlled substances. I have worked as a nurse for 16 years. I have seen the effects of debilitating conditions, long-term effects of medication usage, and the ongoing problem of prescription drug abuse.

Local pleads case of medical marijuanaLetter to the EDITOR

In October, I wrote about the removal of the large concrete block building at the corner of Highway 177A and Highway 79 (Waukesha St) in Pepper Town (North Bonifay). Some of my memories were inaccurate, and I received an email from L. Paul Mathis, who worked there for the Butlers in 1950 and 1951. I am grateful to Paul for updating and correcting my inaccuracies. I always welcome such feedback. If I get something wrong and no one corrects me, then it is history according to Hazel.

Paul said he remembers when the two-story building was built. “James and Myrtle Butler owned a grocery store in a wood-frame building at that location and built the block building around and over the wood-frame building while continuing to sell groceries and meat out of the location during the entire renovation. When the roof was on the new block building, they began to demolish the wood frame building from inside the block building.”

Paul said he was employed by the Butlers in the new block building during his junior and senior years at Holmes County High School. He’d work seven days a week during the summer; then, during the school year, he’d work from 6-8 a.m. and all day Saturday and

Sunday.While Paul Mathis was

employed, Mr. Butler cut the meat himself. After he taught Paul to cut meat, he alternated with Mr. Butler

as the meat cutter.During that

time, the Butlers owned a 1947 GMC truck. Paul used it to deliver groceries to customers. I never had home-delivery of groceries. Paul said Mr. and Mrs.

Butler allowed him to take the truck home overnight so he could drive his mother to his graduation ceremony when he graduated with the class of 1951. That was the only time he was allowed that privilege. He recalled my husband’s brother Harry also graduated at that time. The two of them worked across the street from each other, Harry for the John Manuel grocery and Paul for the Butler grocery. They both had Cushman motor scooters; Harry’s was red and Paul’s was green. They spent their off-time cruising the streets of Bonifay.

I joined the Tison family in December of 1949, and the red motor scooter was Harry’s mode of transportation. He had a paper delivery route for a daily newspaper and The Grit, which was delivered on the scooter. He would use it for a trip to the creek, an errand for the family, to go to the movies, or wherever he wanted to go. I heard his sister Nell tell about him taking

her and her girlfriend for a ride. But he took off in such a hurry, he left the girls sitting in the road.

I asked Paul Mathis for an update on his life and memories of Bonifay for this article. He graciously supplied me with a good accounting. Some of his accomplishments at HCHS include serving as student council president and Key Club president. In 1949, he was chosen to play in the National FFA Band, and in 1947, he played in the Florida State Band. After he and Harry graduated from Holmes County High in 1951, Paul attended Auburn University with the idea of majoring in agricultural education. However, fi nancial realities caused him to leave Auburn and join the U.S. Air Force at the age of 17. (He had been allowed to start fi rst grade in Bonifay the age of 5.)

After rising through the ranks in the Air Force, he applied for and was accepted for Offi cer Candidate School. He retired with the rank of

major. During his career, he attended more than 30 professional and technical schools, two of the greatest signifi cance were the Seventh Army NCO Academy and the Air Force Command and Staff College.

In 1953 or 54, while Paul was stationed in Wels, Austria, and Harry Tison was stationed in Augsburg, Germany, the two of them rendezvoused in Wels for a few days, where Paul was able to introduce Harry to his future wife, an Austrian lady who has remained at his side for 59 years.

Paul retired in 1975 and located in Scottsdale, Ariz., where his wife opened an art gallery to dispose of the paintings she had collected during their trips to Europe while in the Air Force. She retired in 1985, and the two travel and explore the Outback of Arizona.

Paul who was born in Vernon just east of the courthouse square, where his closest neighbors, the Bruner family, lived on the south bank of Holmes

Creek. Mrs. Mamie Roach, his mother’s best friend, named him Lloyd, but his mother preferred Paul. He has clear memories of traveling from Bonifay to Vernon to visit, crossing the wooden one-lane bridge. There were two pullouts in case you met traffi c. Even as a small child, he breathed a sigh of relief when the crossing was accomplished.

When the family moved to Bonifay, they bought land and built a small house where the late Bruce Williams home is now located. Paul’s most vivid memories of school involve the band, which he joined in the fourth grade. In high school, there were the Friday night football games. After the games, he’d walk home via Waukesha Street to Butler’s store, pause between that and Ed Durant’s store and survey the boggy, swampy road to the west that at led home, wondering how many snakes he’d encounter. He’d plunge ahead calling out to the top of his voice,

“Ye, though I walk through the Valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Repeating these words loudly, he’d high step all the way home.

Another vivid memory was when he was in about the fourth grade. His mother would allow him to ride his pony to school occasionally. He would unsaddle it and leave it tied to an oak tree on the west side of the school across from the McKinnon dairy, where the middle school gym now stands. He could always see the pony from his classroom window. He would have to ride it home for lunch, where he left it to pasture and water while he walked back for the afternoon session. Schoolmates were always excited to see the pony at school.

It is always a pleasure to hear about a Holmes County person who has “done alright.” Thanks to Paul Mathis for sharing his memories of Bonifay and school days of the ’50s.

On Jan. 27, the Arc of Washington-Holmes Counties Inc., staff and consumers presented the Chipley High School Band with a donation of $230 from their Jan. 17 hot dog fundraiser. The staff and clients were thrilled they could help the Band in their quest to attend the 2014 National Memorial Day Parade.

Special to the News

Bonifay Garden Club members enjoyed another delicious luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce on Jan. 10.

“Our guest speaker was Matt Orwat, who gave an enjoyable and informative program titled ‘Camellias Make Sense,’ ” said Adonna Bartlett. “Camellias have been a part of the southern landscape for almost 200 years.

They were introduced into the U.S. near Charleston, South Carolina in 1786. Today more than 3,000 named kinds of camellias exist, in a remarkable range of colors and sizes. What a wonderful way to roll in the New Year, with the beauty of camellias.”

Susan Pittman, First Vice

President, presided over the meeting in Bartlett’s absence. Hostesses for the meeting were Sandra Devine and Diane Little. The meeting continued with Secretary, Hazel Tison reading the minutes and Treasury, Eileen Wright delivering the Treasury’s report. Following, DiAnn Shores, Second Vice President gave the plans for the upcoming Arbor Day Celebrations, at Bonifay Elementary and Memorial Planting at Ponce De Leon. Pittman also covered details concerning the Spring District II Meeting. The By-Laws revisions were discussed and placed on hold.

Our first meeting of 2014 also saw a change to the scheduled program. The meetings will be held on the second Tuesday of each month. The new location for meetings will be at

the First Baptist Church of Bonifay Annex. The next meeting will be Feb. 11.

The meetings start at 11:30 a.m. with a potluck luncheon followed by a program which may cover either floral design, indoor or outdoor gardening, green practices, landscape design or sound horticultural methods combined with good fellowship.

The yearly dues are $25 and lunch is $5 for members and guests. In addition to the regular meetings, there are tours to places of interest for gardeners.

If gardening teaches you one thing, it’s that nothing is constant. Seasons come and go. Set backs happen, as well as advancements. A big part of our club’s mission is education.

Washington County ARRESTS

By MATTHEW BEATON 522-5114 | @matthewbeaton

[email protected]

TALLAHASSEE — The Florida Legislature’s com-prehensive gambling legis-lation this year will include eliminating the minimum number of required races for horse and dog tracks, lawmakers said Monday.

The practice, known as decoupling, will get a high profi le change in the bill, the result of a lobbying surge from tracks and ani-mal advocates on the issue that has bounced around Tallahassee for years. Tracks currently must run a certain number of races each year to be allowed to operate the more-profi table card rooms.

State Senate Gaming Committee Chairman Gar-rett Richter, R-Naples, announced the proposed committee bill’s core com-ponents at the panel’s Mon-day meeting. The bill’s draft text will be unveiled Mon-day, before the committee’s next meeting.

The bill also will include an injury-reporting require-ment at dog and horse tracks, something for which animal advocates have pushed.

Noticeably omitted, though, is a decision on slot machines. Washington and Gadsden counties have approved slot machines through local referendum, but the state attorney general blocked the coun-

ties from activating those machines.

In Monday’s meeting, Richter pushed for decou-pling tracks immediately, saying he believed the state no longer should tell the dog and horse tracks how to run their businesses. In recent years, interest in dog tracks has taken a precipitousdecline, to the point where all tracks in the state are losing money.

Ebro Greyhound Park, just north of Bay County, lost $2.9 million on grey-hound racing in 2012. Even its card room profi ts weren’t enough to put it in the black, as the track lost $1 million overall that year.

State Sen. Jack Latvala,

R-Clearwater, said decou-pling is not a “black and white issue.” He said breed-ers and trainers make their living based on these races and through decoupling the state Legislature would be picking winners and losers.

At the end of the meet-ing, it remained unclear whether the decoupling por-tion of the bill would be writ-ten prior to the legislation’s unveiling. Richter said he would consult with staff.

“We’ll either develop it on the fl y or pick it apart when we get it,” he said.

State Sen. Bill Montford,D-Tallahassee, whose dis-trict includes several Pan-handle counties, though not Washington, stayed silent

during the discussion. Gaming commissionThe proposed bill also

would create a state gam-ing commission, which ap-pears to have unanimous support from the gaming committee.

Latvala wholeheartedly endorsed the idea. He said in other states the gaming industry fears the gaming commission. “I think that’s what we need here,” he said.

Senators expressed con-cern, however, over how members would be picked for the commission, which was compared to the state’s Public Service Commission (PSC), a board that over-sees utilities in Florida.

Latvala said he didn’t like comparisons to the PSC, which at times has cozied up to industry interests. He said he doesn’t want a gam-bling commission to be the industry’s “lap dog.”

Richter endorsed the idea of full-time board members beingpaid at the PSC rate of about $130,000 annually.

The commission would oversee all gaming in the state, except the Florida Lottery, which didn’t ap-peal to Senate President designate Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando.

Gardiner said the Lot-tery is gambling and it would be worth including under a commission’s pur-

view, particularly based on what he described as past problems, although he didn’t elaborate. “I wouldn’t shut the door on it yet,” Gar-diner said.

The bill also would:• Authorize the gover-

nor to move forward and renegotiate the existing Seminole Compact for high-stakes table games.

• Open the door for des-tination casinos in Miami-Dade and Broward coun-ties. Richter made it clear destination-casino licenses wouldn’t be handed out to everyone, but he suggested these two locales might qualify as exceptions and openly endorsed putting a casino in Miami.

BONIFAY — After a well fought, two-day battle, the Holmes County Lady Blue Devils walked away cham-pions of District 2 after this weekend’s Girls’ District Tournament in high school basketball.

During the fi rst day of the tournament, held on Friday, Chipley High School’s Lady Tigers gained a sound victory over the Freeport Lady Bulldogs with a score of 43-34.

After a fi erce start from both sides the Lady Tigers and Lady Bulldogs were tied at the end of the fi rst period with a score of 8-8.

The Lady Bulldogs quickly recovered leaving the Lady Tigers behind by three points and ending the fi rst period with a score of 22-19.

After halftime, the Lady Tigers hungrily dug in, sur-passing the Lady Bulldogs fi rst by three points end-ing the third period with a score of 31-28 and then pushing harder, widening the gap by nine points and ending the game with a score of 43-34.

With the Lady Tigers of Chipley High School secur-ing their victory the next battle between Holmes County’s Lady Blue Devils and Jay Lady Royals would decide who they faced the next day.

The Lady Blue Devils were the ones to answer as their challenger after defeating the Lady Royals with a score of 79-39.

The Lady Blue Devils came off strong and re-mained strong throughout the game, relinquishing not even an inch for the struggling Lady Royals as they ended the fi rst period with a 15-point lead with a score of 25-10 and the fi rst half with a 19-point lead with a score of 46-27.

As the battle raged on the Lady Blue Devils re-turned shot for shot if not by two-fold ending the third period with a score of 64-32 and fi nally wrapping up their victory with a 40-point lead with a score of 79-39.

The Lady Devils would soon fi nd their challenge against the Lady Tigers as they faced off against each other in the District 2 Championship round on Saturday night, where the Lady Devils found a nar-row victory with a score of 56-55.

The Lady Devils and the Lady Tigers started with equal ferocity as the

battle for District 2 champ began, however it was the Lady Tigers who gained a two-point lead at the end of the fi rst period with a score of 11-9 and continued to maintain a lead, push-ing the gap further with a three-point lead at the end of the fi rst half with a score of 26-23.

The Lady Blue Devils

fought hard to bridge that gap only to trail farther behind as the Lady Tigers held a nine-point lead at the end of the third period with a score of 41-32.

The turning point didn’t come until the last few minutes of the game, with not a bottom in their seat and not a call to be heard over the roar of the crowd

as the Lady Devils recov-ered the lost distance and surpassed the Lady Tigers in time for the fi nal buzzer with a score of 56-55.

Next the Lady Blue Dev-ils will be participating in 2014 FHSAA Class 1A Girls Basketball Championship on Feb. 11. Their opponent, time and place are still to be announced.
