Annual House TourThe annual house tour takes place Friday. Here are some highlights about the

homes to be visited.No. 1. Home of Mr. Robert Houston and Mr. George Rusch. "Fishing Shack" is

what Mr. Houston and Mr. Rusch call their home on a corner of two canals in ShellHarbor. That the owners are avid fishermen is apparent upon entering the patio, buta shack, this charming house is definitely not.

The shell pictures and drawings gracing the foyer and hallway walls are by KayLawrence McRae, well known Sanibel artist. Of special note in the living room is af* '^ago public school clock, over 125 years old, refinished and antiqued by Mr.

.ston. Mr. Rusch's interest in Oriental art shows in the fine wall hangings, objectsd'art, furniture and especially the Chinese God of happiness statue in his bedroom.

No. 2. Home of Mr. & Mrs. Joseph G. Winterrowd. A Needleworker's dreamhouse is the home of Mr. & Mrs. Joseph G. Winterrowd on Palm Lake Drive. Thewalls of the bright, gay living room are hung with crewel pictures of bouquets of BlueLupine and Red Anemones copied from the National Geographic magazine as wellas other pictures with motifs from a bedspread which is displayed in the BostonMuseum of Fine Arts. This charming and well-planned house was built by RobertStevens.

No. 3. Home of Mr. & Mrs. Leslie G. P. Waller. Completely enclosing a central

atrium containing exotic trees, plants and birds, the home of Mr. & Mrs. Waller inChateaux Sur Mer was built by Everett Raines in a natural, tropical setting on theGulf. The central atrium, the entrance court and the screened sun deck give theeffect of outdoor living to the living room, dining area, den and two bedrooms whichsurround it.

No. 4. Home of Mr. & Mrs. James C. Worthy. Two massive Japanese Foo dogs,carved from solid granite guard the entrance way to the Chateaux Sur Mer home ofMr. & Mrs. Worthy and set the motif for some of the decor. A Japanese stone lanternand a lotus bowl enhance the patio rock garden. The spacious and airy home is aRichmond built home with several modifications. The rambling gracious house hastwo bedrooms and baths, a most comfortable den and a small creative room in whichMr. Worthy paints. This room also houses the stereo which is piped throughout thehouse.

No. 5. Home of Mr. & Mrs. Charles J. Wilson. One approaches the home of Mr. &Mrs. Wilson through lush, natural, tropical growth to which has been added manynative plants. The house, built by Robert Stevens from plans drafted by Mr. Wilson,contains a noteworthy collection of Mexican, South American and African artifacts.Mr. Wilson is an anthropologist who has spent much time in Mexico.

No. 6. Home of Mr. & Mrs. Crawford Cate. Buenaventura, the home of Mr. &Mrs. Cate in Gulf Pines, could almost be classified as a museum. The many pricelessantiques have all been family-owned since before Civil War days. A beautiful, curlymaple dresser in the master bedroom was made from the wood of a curly maple treehand hewn by Mr. Cate's great-great grandfather in 1835. The house, which was builtby Rutenberg, fronts on the Gulf.

Around a plate rail in the den are antique wooden trains made by Mr. Cate'sfather and uncle between the years 1874-1879 when the boys were young teenagers.Authentic scale models of the trains of that day, they were made from wooden cigarboxes, cheese boxes and empty spool threads. It is interesting, too, to note how thedeck outside the family room makes a perfect transition from room to beach, whichis being kept in natural condition. The guest bedroom is almost a museum replicawhere there are two lovely antique dolls in residence.

The tour is sponsored by the Women of St. Michael's and All Angels EpiscopalChurch and will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tour visitors are invited to stop bythe church during the afternoon for a cup of tea.

There's a $4 donation and the Willis Coombs Audubon registered native plantsanctuary will also be open to tour visitors.

HIS NAME WAS MATTby 'Lee' Clapp

I started calling early in themorning;

I called all through the day;

I called into the evening-

There never was an answer.

You see--The day before, he told me he was

sick,But in the morningHe would bring his uniform, for

me to fix.

LaterI heard the phone ring loud

and sharp-This time, the answer came.His son •- "I think dad is dead."

Let me tell the world how muchhe gave,

And in his giving, the world losthim.

WHO'S WHOAMD WHY

Mr. & Mrs. VERNE PRICE ofBurlington, Iowa, are returning homethis week after a pleasant two monthsspent at TONI SKOCZAK'S GumboLimbo Apts. on Captiva. They had anopportunity to see, appreciate and buya couple of her lovely pictures.

Mr. & Mrs. LLOYD RICE ofSpencer, Iowa, returned home this weekafter a six week's vacation spent onCaptiva.

Mr. & Mrs. TERRY BORCHERShad a social gathering at their home onAngel Wing Drive for Mrs. JANESLOANE of Homestead, Fla., onSaturday, March 10 at 8 p.m. A pleasantevening was enjoyed by many Sanibelfriends.

The AL MUENCHS have done somuch to improve and develop thePeriwinkle Trailer Park community byenlarging it and always ensuring that theentire park is clean and neat as a pin,and the birds on their little lake aretruly some of the most gorgeous foundanywhere in Florida. Some scarlet ibisare the most beautiful color in flamehues ever seen, and the roseatespoonbills and flamingoes are as colorfulbirds as one could see anywhere. Thebirds receive the best of care and diet,and special oils are fed them so thatthey always retain their vivid hues andcolors.

SCOTT LANGSTON, 15, was oneof the younger entrants in the Shell Fairwho flew down from Indiana. Hecarefully arranged the shells in his fourentries and though he did not win anyblue ribbons we believe he was the bestsport found anywhere, and he said helearned a lot from the Fair and we hopethat he will try again, for he was mostmeticulous in his treatment of cowriesand other shells displayed in glass caseswhich he carried by hand down on aplane from the north. And what apleasure he was to talk with! He said hewished he could take a bit of Floridaand Sanibel and Captiva back with him.

At the risk of going to jail, we feelthat we must mention that HARRY atTender Touch, male hair stylist workson not only ladies, but also men, whobrazen it out and come in to have theirhair styled and cut, and we are all formen being beautiful too, bless their peapickin' hearts.

Boy, is our face red! Seems that anislander did win the beautiful shell tableabout five years ago when Mrs.GEORGE WILLIAMSON of Gulf Drivetook the lovely table home with her andis still enjoying it in her home. And wegoofed on not reporting that Mrs.ELSIE MALONE won a blue ribbon forher beautiful and complete shell dealers'collection of pectens in 8 boxes. Shewon in the World Wide collection of onefamily, and her shells of such delicatehues are a really beautiful andmemorable sight. We truly wish tothank the Elsies for helping in arrangingthe shell tables and spending so manyhours in helping to make it a success.Pectens are one of our favorite shells,since they do come in such vibrantcolors, and the Elsies are some of thenicest people one can ever meet, andour sincere apologies for overlookingsuch talent.

MORE ON SEBRING

It's one down and one to go for thePeter Gregg/Hurley Haywood Porscheteam from Jacksonville in theirall-Florida assault on the nation'sendurance race classic: First theDaytona 24 hours, and next, on March24, the Sebring 12 hours.

Winners of the Daytona race byover 80 miles in a Porsche Carrera,Florida's two road racing superstars turntheir sights to the older Sebring airportcircuit for the 23rd annual renewal ofthe nation's first endurance race; but ifthey manage the win, they'll haveoutraced the largest field in the track'shistory, and certainly one of the mostcompetitive.

A starting field of 70 high-poweredGT (Grand Touring) cars will take the

starter's flag at 11 a.m. including one ofthe fastest fields of Corvettes everassembled. And the Corvettes, withengines ranging up to 468 cu. in., willhave history on their side in the battleagainst the Gregg/Haywood Porsche.

Last year, in the last Sebring race toinclude the sports prototypes, saw DaveHeinz of Tampa and Bob Johnson ofMarietta, Ohio, drive to a GT class winand 4th overall, the highest placing everby a GT car. And right behind in 5thand closing at the end, came Gregg andHaywood.

Heinz already has filed his entry forthe race with new co-driver JerryThompson of Detroit. The two veteranCorvette pilots will run the LeMans carfrom last year following a completewinter rebuild by chief mechanic DanaEnglish.

Johnson, meanwhile, has changedhats from Goodyear to Goodrich to jointhe John Greenwood Corvette team.Greenwood, in addition to promoting

the Sebring event, will enter a three carteam with drivers Ron Grable, JimGreendyke, Don Venko and DennyLong sharing the driving of the othertwo cars.

Arrayed against the tire companyefforts are a host of private Corvettepilots, including Tony DeLorenzo ofTroy, Mich., with Can-Am veteran SteveDurst sharing driving duties in the BuddEngineering Car. "We've got a brandnew car," DeLorenzo says, "And withour experience we feel we stand as gooda chance as anyone. But looking back atlast year and at this year's Daytona race,you have to give the nod to Gregg andHaywood, or to Heinze. They've justdone fantastically well and they knowhow to run to the finish. But so do we,and I think we can do the job."

Vince Gimondo of Orlando willtake on old rival Tom Nehl ofJacksonville in the Camaro matchup,continuing a five-year rivalry. Gimondowill co-drive with Bill Dingman, while

TO THE ISLANDER:A copy of the following letter was

sent to the Islander for publication:Mr. Kenneth DanielsChairman, Lee County CommissionersFort Myers, Fla.Dear Mr. Daniels:

Recently I read that a buildingpermit, which allowed construction inexcess of 35 feet height, had been issuedto the developer of Loggerhead Cay onSanibel Island. I followed very closelythe height restriction issue andparticipated in the democratic processwhich led to the height restrictionordinance.

With all due respect, I requestinformation on several questions:

1. Was a permit issued whichpermits construction in excess of 35feet? If so, what rationale or loophole inthe ordinance permitted this, and who,specifically, was responsible for thewording of the ordinance?

2. In the event that a newlyconstructed building does exceed the 35foot height restriction, what sanctionsare available to the Commission, andwhat alternatives are open to citizenvoters who do not wish to condonecontemptuous disregard of duly enactedlegislaion?

As a Sanibel property owner andLee County voter, I abide byconstruction ordinances. In severalways, the restrictions are costly andpersonally inconvenient, and precludefinancial gain which could be realized ifthe ordinances were less restrictive.However, the ordinances bring order,and, given our form of government,represent the will of the majority — assuch, they should be made to applyequally to all.

/s/ D. M. MaloneCarlisle Barracks, Pa.

TO THE ISLANDER:On behalf of the Board of

Directors, I would like to thank all ofthe people who attended the Feb. 28thpublic hearing regarding buildingpermits for Loggerhead Cay. The 100 orso residents who turned out on suchshort notice strengthened the stand ofthe Sanibel-Captiva Planning Board asdid the letters written by many whocould not attend. Undoubtedly, thissupport will help immeasurably whenmatters of importance to the islandsarise in the future.

The outcome of the meeting wasthat the owner of Loggerhead Cay andhis architect agreed to scale down theparapet walls from 8V2 feet to 3 feet.This is permitted under our buildingheight ordinance. The question ofbuilding permits and water connectionhas yet to be resolved by the CountyBuilding Dept. and the Island WaterAssociation.

CARETTA RESEARCH

"Operation Loggerhead," a 16mm film produced by E. J. Phillips was shown tomembers and guests of the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation at the SanibelCommunity House on Tuesday evening, March 6. Also on the program was a slideshow by Paul Zajicek, entitled "The Next to Go; The Loggerhead Turtles of CapeRomano."

Charles LeBuff, Jr., Director of the Caretta Research Project, presented theprogram and spoke on the progress made by the Caretta Research team during thefour years it has been in operation. LeBuff also outlined the objectives of theorganization, composed of volunteers who work for the preservation and protectionof Caretta caretta, the scientific name for the loggerhead sea turtle.

Each summer, young people, usually students interested in marine biology, workunder the supervision of experienced Unit Leaders at the eight loggerhead stationsbetween Clearwater and Cape Romano on the Gulf of Mexico. At some of thesebeaches, camps may be established for two months or more. The functions of thestations are multi-purposed and the work is often accomplished under the worst ofconditions. Studies conducted during the summer by the Caretta units includegeneral aerial nesting surveys, localized on-the-beach nest counts, tagging of adultturtles, nest site tenacity studies, determination of depredation on eggs by naturalpredators and hatching tabulation.

Since the establishment of Caretta Research, a great deal of new information onthe life history of loggerheads has been provided and new techniques and expertise inconducting successful conservation programs has resulted. The job to be done byCaretta Research can be illustrated by listing the following general objectives:

1. Ongoing research into population trends within the marine turtle communityof the Gulf of Mexico.

2. Maintain surveillance on known turtle nesting assemblages along the Gulf inthe area where the eight units are located.

3. Expand sea turtle tagging. Much can be learned by the returned informationconcerning their reappearance in other areas after being tagged and released by theCaretta team.

4. Study factors of nesting and production success at established unit studyareas.

5. When required by substantial data, collect and transplant loggerhead eggs tohatchery areas to reduce the destruction of eggs and increase nesting colony

productivity.6. Continue to push for new and tougher state protection laws.7. Maintain limited numbers of young turtles in order to study growth patterns,

evaluate the tags and other methods of marking, and for educational purposes.8. Continue a program of public education to publicize the plight of all sea

turtles; sponsor marine science workshops; develop audio-visual packets fordistribution to schools, libraries and service organizations; and provide workscholarships in marine biology.

9. Cooperate and exchange information with other marine turtle conservationgroups here and throughout the world.

Caretta Research was founded in 1968 by a group of conservationists who wereconcerned about the future of loggerhead marine turtles along the Gulf coast of theUnited States. Studies made on Sanibel-Captiva Islands, Fla., prior to 1968 hadindicated that these turtles were serously threatened in the Gulf of Mexico. CarettaResearch was established to study the problem further, attempt to restore thenumber of loggerheads to a stable population, make sound recommendations toenhance the continued survival of sea turtles and initiate educational programs fordissemination through the news media, schools and civic organizations.

The loggerhead turtle is distributed world-wide in temperate and tropical seas. InNorth America, loggerheads are the only marine turtles which nest on our shores innumbers. Nesting occurs along the shores from New Jersey to Texas, but majorconcentrations of nesting are located in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. In May,June, July and August, usually well after darkness has fallen, female loggerheadsleave the water and clumsily make their way across the beach until they are abovethe zone of high tide. With her rear flippers, the turtle digs a flask-shaped holeapproximately eight to ten inches in diameter and 20 inches deep into which shebegins to deposit her eggs. Each one, somewhat larger than a ping-pong ball, has apliable leathery shell and actually bounces as it falls into the hole. She will depositbetween 40 and 180 eggs, depending on her size and cycle in the nesting season. Shethen covers the eggs with the rear flippers and with the paddle-like front ones,broadcasts sand back toward the nest as a camoflaging ploy. It is after this that shereturns to the sea. But during the time she is out of the water, she is completelydefenseless and the target of the worst predator — man.

Caretta Research is a non-profit organization which depends entirely on privatecontributions through memberships, gifts and grants. Those who are interested inbecoming members may contact the main Unit office on Sanibel.

THIS WEEK AT THE SANIBEL LIBRARYby Hal H. Harrison

If I could write a library report daily instead of weekly, I might have somechance of keeping up to date, telling you quickly about the new books as they arriveat the Sanibel Public Library. As it is, I am far behind in my reports.

For example, the January selection of the Literary Guild is "Green Darkness" byAnya Sexton, and it arrived here in January. Those who visit the library regularlykeep an eye on the best-seller shelf so the book has not been gathering dust, but Iwish I could have told you about it sooner. Now that you know, put your name onthe list to read this novel of mysticism, suspense and mystery, a story of good andevil.

Another book that arrived in January is Phyllis Whitney's new romantic suspensenovel, "Snowfire." The setting is a snow-covered ski resort in the northeast. Attesting*o Phyllis Whitney's popularity among Sanibel readers is the fact that the library has

3 of her novels on its shelves. They include "Columbella," "Hunter's Green,""Listen for the Whisper" (one of her best), and "Lost Island."

Then there is Ira Levin's "The Stepford Wives," another Literary Guild selection.Like Mr. Levin's "Rosemary's Baby," this chilling story of the wives (and theirbewitched husbands) in a small village near New York, will be talked about — andshuddered about — for a long time.

Those who enjoyed Chaim Potok's two best-sellers, "The Chosen," and "ThePromise," will be happy to know that his latest, "My Name is Asher Lev," is now atthe library. This is the story of a great contemporary painter whose life is tracedfrom his boyhood in Brooklyn to his triumphant exhibition that wins recognition forhis art, a deep insight into the growth of genius.

Here's a real sleeper for you — "Report from Engine Co. 82" by Dennis Smith.The author is a New York fireman who offers a skillful documentary of a dirty, hard,brutal profession. Exciting and tragic stories fill the book.

A woman's lib romp that should delight many distaff library members is ElaineMorgan's "The Descent of Woman," a Book-of-the-Month Club selection. The maintheme questions the generally accepted fact that the evolution of the human race

means the evolution of MEN. Arguments are presented thoughtfully and withconsiderable wit.

Lovers of sea stories will enjoy Edward L. Beach's new novel of submarines andthe men who command them, "Dust on the Sea." You will remember Beach as theauthor of "Run Silent, Run Deep."

With five of Eric Ambler's novels already in stock, the library has added his newone, "The Levanter," a suspense story of a businessman who gets involved with aband of ultra-radical Arab guerrillas.

Ready for a good 87th Precinct mystery? "Sadie When She Died" by Ed McBainwill keep you up late. McBain will have a new one out this month, "Let's Hear it forthe Deaf Man," and we'll get it for you just as soon as possible.

MANY ISLANDERS ATTEND COMMISSIONERS MEETING

The public hearing held Feb. 28 was attended by about 100 islanders, and hadbeen called because the Sanibel-Captiva Planning Board had asserted that thebuildings planned by Loggerhead Cay violated the island's height limitationordinance. Don Molloy, of the Lee County Building and Zoning Dept., explainedthat building permits had been issued last June for a model and two buildings butthat only the model was built and the permit had since expired. Since the question ofa violation of the 35 ft. limitation had been brought to the attention of the Board ofCounty Commissioners, his department had not re-issued permits.

Robert Buntrock and his architect, Harold Hicks, then announced that anagreement had been reached to scale down the parapet walls to 3 ft. in place of theoriginal 8V2 ft. It was also agreed that the heights of buildings on Sanibel and Captivawould be measured from a ground site level of no less than 9 ft., for reasons ofsafety, and no more than 10 feet.

Mr. Walter Shirey was applauded when he severely criticised the buildingdepartment for issuing such permits without consulting the Board of CountyCommissioners. Mrs. Wisher, County Administrator, pointed out that under the guidelines recently laid down, this would not happen again.

For the newcomer on the Islands, we have:New supply of styrofoam shell trees & wreaths.Collectors Hutch Boxes which are a brand new item this year to

display your memorabilia.Mahagony Dust-proof shell display boxes (over 12 different kinds

& sizes).

For the Shell lover who doesn't pick up shells, we have:Needlepoint kits with shell & also Bird Designs.

Our new supply of craft & art books will help while away the eveninghours.

Just in • celluloid display cases that will protect your treasure even if itis over 20" high.

And, for all, shell gifts & jewelry made by local artists to take home asgifts.

FURNISHED MODEL - OPEN DAILY

SANIBEL TO HOST RETURN FINE ARTPHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBIT BY IVIN WISE

Sanibel Island will be the site for the second Fine Art Photographic exhibition ofworks by Ivin Wise of Pompano Beach, Fla., this weekend when the Legel ArtGallery of Periwinkle Way, Sanibel, will sponsor a three day Open House displayingthese pictures The showing will start on Friday, March 16, and will continue throughSunday, March 18.

Mr. Wise had a similar exhibit at the Legel Art Gallery this past December whenmany Islanders and visitors viewed his work.

Ivin Wise returns to Sanibel after a series of similar shows in Fort Lauderdale andCoral Springs, Fla., where record crowds attended his openings. This past summer hehad one-man shows in Wellfleet and in South Yarmouth on Cape Cod, Mass.

Except for a few. instances, all of the pictures to be shown on Sanibel are new,and all were taken on either Sanibel or Captiva.

Mr. Wise is a photographer who has fallen in love with Florida and his exhibitreflects his infatuation with the flora and fauna of this state. The pictures are all ofnature subjects without man, and this has been the theme of his work in recentmonths. He explains, "Sanibel and a few other similar places in Florida offer a widevariety of picture possibilities showing the different faces of nature at its best." Hisfavorite pictures show the wide, lonely beaches, exotic birds, or dramatic, colorfulsunsets.

There will be three varieties of pictures for the public to view. These include hisstudies in black and white, color, and a group of high-contrast reversal studies ofselected subjects. All refect his continuing interest in the Oriental art form of SumiE, the ink brush work of simple subjects. He originally studied this form of art aspart of his work in ceramics and pottery. Samples of his pottery will also be onexhibit at the Legel Art Gallery. Two of his pottery pieces were selected forpermanent exhibit in the Miami Museum of Modern Art.

Mr. Wise will be at the Legel Art Gallery for the three days of his showing tomeet with the public and hopes to renew acquaintances with the many Islanders whoattended his first exhibit.

ATTENTION

Attention every one that has a fire extinguisher. Please check the tag on it forthe inspection date. If it is more than a year old it should be re-inspected to makesure it is operable. Some have the window that tells if it is good or not. It may showthat it is good but many times the gauge becomes corroded and does not workproperly.

If you do not know where to have this done contact Phil Verdung at the newFire House Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., or call472-1414 and he will be glad to assist you in any way he can.

DING'S THINGS

Fourteen wildlife species known to use the J. N. Ding Darling National WildlifeRefuge are listed in the "Redbook" — the federal government's roll of rare andendangered fish and wildlife of the United States. The Florida manatee, southernbald eagle, peregrine falcon, and American alligator are termed "endangered species,"meaning that their prospects for reproduction and survival are in immediatejeopardy. The Eastern brown pelican and Florida great white heron are "rarespecies." An animal with this classification occurs in such small numbers that it maybecome endangered if its environment declines. A third category defined in theBureau of Sport Fisheries & Wildlife's "Redbook" is the peripheral species, onewhose United State occurrence is at the edge of its natural range and which is rare orendangered in the United States but not throughout its entire range. Sanibel speciesclassified thusly are the reddish egret, roseate spoonbill, mangrove cuckoo, and twoaccidentals, the sooty and noddy terns. The fourth group represented at Ding Darlingare the "status undetermined" birds; the osprey, burrowing owl, and wood ibis.These creatures defy any other classification because little is known about their livesand habits.

In the weeks to follow each of these endangered, rare, peripheral, and statusundetermined species will be in the limelight, in an effort to determine why they findthemselves threatened with extinction.
