Gerz said the public is misinformed about the situation and that commercial fishermen get all the blame even though there are 30 residential boats for every one com- 813) 697-1445 mercial boat in the area. Gerz also criticized some aspects of Sanibel, saying the dike in "Ding" Darling had "screwed everything up in that part of the world." John Liljequist of Sanibel said it seemed to him the number of net fishermen had increased 5 or 10 times re- cently. Liljequist referred several times to "the greenhats" and often spoke more to the audience than to the commis- sion staff. They finally warned him not to try to start a debate with the audience. A couple of the fishermen wore green baseball caps. Robert Lawhorn of Bonita Springs regretted the passing of the old days when fishermen could get to the fish. He said canals were dug, giving fish a place to hide, and then fishermen were ordered not to fish in canals. Lawhorn said there used to be extensive grassbeds that fed fish but then the whole area was dredged to make the Sanibel Causeway islands and all those grassbeds were destroyed. Alice Anders of the Sanibel Wildlife Committee spoke in favor of the Sanibel proposal. Mary Jo Williamson contended there is no emergency in the mullet population.

He is also a Please see LAUGH-ATHON, page 15B premise for the insane plot. You quickly adjusted to the fact that one set represented the living rooms of two different houses. It took only a second or two to sort out the fact that there were two wives, both married to the same English cab driver, busily preparing for their beloved husband's home coming. Suddenly it happens. A rather straight (I use the word advisedly) detective (played by Scott Bennett) brings home to one wife Mary Smith (played by Kathleen Bryan-Baldini) a rather bewildered, head-bandaged hero, husband of two (played by Scott Thomson). The other wife Barbara (played by Abigail Zealey) keeps calling the police for information about her husband. Enter Stanley Gardner, a friend from upstairs (played by Clif Morts), wearing the most outrageous pair of furry animal house slippers it has been my pleasure to see in years. Not since Beatrice Lillie made an entrance as Madame Arcati in the musical version of "Blithe Spirit" wearing fuzzy, bunny house slippers, has such blatant footwear been perpetrated upon an unsuspecting public. The results: absolute peals of laughter. I dare not try to explain the plot any further.
