    1 CENTER FOR FLORIDA HISTORY ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM INTERVIEW WITH: HOMER HOOKS INTERVIEWER: JAMES M. DENHAM PLACE: LAKELAND, FLORIDA DATE: JULY 29, 2003 M= JAMES M. DENHAM (Mike) H= HOMER HOOKS M: Today we are interviewing Mr. Homer Hooks and we are going to talk today about the legacy of Lawton Chiles and hopefully follow this up with future discussions of Mr. Hooks’ business career and career in politics. Good morning Mr. Hooks. H: Good morning, Mike. M: As I mentioned, we, really, in the future want to talk about your service in World War II and also your business career, but today we would like to focus on your memories of Lawton Chiles. Even so, can you tell us a little bit about where you were born as well as giving us a brief biographical sketch? H: Yes, Mike. I was born in Columbia, South Carolina, on January 10, 1921. My family moved to Lake County actually in Florida when I was a child. I was 4 or 5 years old, I guess. We lived in Clermont in south Lake County. My grandfather was a pioneer. He platted the town of Clermont. The rest of the family also lived north of Clermont in the Leesburg area, but we considered ourselves pioneer Florida residents. Those were the days in 1926, ‘27 and ‘28 days and so forth. I grew up in Clermont - grammar school and high school and then immediately went to the University of Florida in 1939 and graduated in 1943, as some people have said, when the earth’s crust was still cooling, so long ago.

LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS TO AMEND THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION: THE IMPLICATIONS OF SMATHERS v. SMITH* I. INTRODUCTION The deliberations of Florida's Constitution Revision Commission have received much attention. Debates have been publicized. Issues have been scrutinized. The careful preparation for proposing constitu- tional changes to the people has been chronicled in depth and detail. When the people of Florida finally vote in November, 1978,1 on the recommendations of the revision commission, they will have had every conceivable opportunity to become familiar with those recommenda- tions. And this is as it should be. The people should know precisely what choices they face when they vote on a revision of their state constitution. Florida's Constitution Revision Commission is "unprecedented and unparalleled."' It is unique in all the nation.3 Nevertheless, the Constitution Revision Commission may not play as crucial or as last- ing a role in the continuing process of constitutional change in Florida as will the Florida Legislature.
