Sanibel Police Sergeant Michael Murray and Officer Bill Dalton found themselves tackling a sharp-toothed situation last month. Brenda and Don Segura noticed an alligator near their home off Bowman's Beach Road. Brenda Segura spotted it first on her way to the mailbox. The couple quickly called police who came out to help relocate the gator. Murray worked for an hour and half capturing the gator. He said it was the most difficult one he's had to capture in a while. Don Segura was impressed with the department's gator capturing knowledge. The gator was transported in the back of a fire truck— Only a limited number of memberships are available after its mouth was taped closed—to a more remote location on Call Rhonda Henning the island.

This is in keeping with their goal of pro- moting fine crafts in the southwest area. Criteria for being accepted into the Guild states that "work of high quality and is generally acceptable at high quality shows, galleries, and museums will be considered. New directions, techniques and combina- tions, use of materials and experimentation are to be encouraged as long as the basic criteria are met." Works are judged on design, originality, craftsman- ship, and imagination. The Southwest Florida Craft Guild works to encourage high standards of performance and accom- plishments in crafts. They participate in and promote as well as educate by use of shows, exhibitions and dissemination of information. Membership is open at all who are interested in crafts. The Standards Committee reviews crafts three times a year.
