Robideau said the company has instituted Photo by Mark Johnson. changes in office operations. Pairing up of sales people, advice to refrain from wearing expen- sive jewelry on the job and an emergency code alert system are the main thrust of Naumann's new policy. Many other Island realtors are planning similar steps if they are not already in effect. Juanita Hermes of Prisci'/ia Murphy Realty said her company has always had a policy of keeping two sales people, ir'any model home, "I am working on additional plans," Hermes said Friday morning. "W^ want to work with the police on this." While Hermes was unable to elaborate on what type of plans she was working on, she did say the changes would affect the entire Priscilla Murphy sales staff. Even those realtors who do not use model homes said they would institute some changes for their associates who host open houses as sales tools. "We have instructed our associates to contact the neighbors on either side of a property that is holding an open house and ask them to keep an eye out," said Bob Hurbanis of Sanibel Realty. "We also told the realtors to make sure all the windows to the home or apartment are open so someone could hear a scream if there is any trouble," he added. But Hurbanis said realtors must continue run- ning both open houses and model homes because WG. REALTOR!* they are effective sales tools. Sanibel police have also offered advice to realtors that might help improve security. Sgt.

"If people are there alone they will always be in danger," he stressed.

Our interest will be confined to what the com- mission calls Class One and Class Two animals. Lions and tigers, being huge, very dangerous cats of the genus Panthera, are Class One animals. It is hard for a citizen to get a license to keep one of these dangerous Class One animals. Felis concolor however, is considered Class Two, and for $100 you or I or anybody else can get a license to keep one of these animals just as long as you follow certain cage and husbandry standards. Wild animal dealers in Miami import South American subspecies of Felis concolor. More than 1,000 Floridians are licensed to own or breed Class Two animals including cougars. Some places within or near the Everglades are very close to the natural range of the Southeastern panther. Alien subspecies from South America, or the western part of this country, perhaps subspecies stanleyana, azteca or californica, are shipped by breeders in the pet trade to Florida. Some of these animals have escaped, or have been released. I have heard of at least six, and probably more can be documented. So what do we really have roaming the Fakahat- chee Strand or the Big Cypress. What is this animal that is called the Florida panther?

Already items are being collected for the sale. Money from the sale will go directly to Care and Rehabilitation of Wildlife. Last year's successful sale gathered up about $6,000 to help injured wildlife taken to the CROW facility. "We're looking for anything we can get," says Helen Webb, one of the volunteers working on the sale. Items donated so far range from a doll cradle to books. Anyone who is interested in donating items for the sale should bring the goods by Webb's home — the green house with the purple door — 2200 Southwinds Drive near Gulfside City Park. Items can be left under the house if no one is home. Those needing help transf err ing items to the house for storage until the sale should call either Webb, 472-4084, or Mary Lee, 472-1812, to make arrangements. Items donated for the sale should be in working condition, Webb emphasizes. Dr. Mark Davenport and Dr. Steven Pieri have volunteered to look over sale items to make sure they work and to try to fix those that do not work.

The two teams scored more than 200 points — perhaps a first in Sanibei basketball history - counts as Sanibei Glass outshot Timbers, 106-96. John Owens was the leading scorer for Sanibei Glass with his 35 points. Rock Morse put in 28 points for the under-manned Timbers squad. In other games last week after the two-week Christmas break, Island Store edged out South Seas Plantation, 64-57. And Corner Drug flew by Arnolds, 71-37. Island Medical picked up the "bye" win in the seven team league. Games tonight include Sanibei Glass facing South Seas Plantation at 7 p.m.; Island Store challenging Timbers at.8 p.m.; and Island Medical Clinic playing Corner Drug at 9 p.m. Standings as of Jan. 8 are as follows: Sanibei Glass, 3-0 Island Medical Clink1, 4-1 Timbers, 3-2 Corner Drug, 3-2 Arnolds, 2-3 Island Store, 2-3 South Seas Plantation. 1-4 If you listened hard when you drove by the American Legion Post on Sanibel- Captiva Road on Sunday afternoon you might have heard the "clang ... clang" of serious horseshoe throwing.
