August 14, 1978 Tallahassee Democrat Fishermen en held, 2 wounded as 'lobster war' es escalates MIAMI (AP) The word "war" long been applied to the fishing-grounds between Cuban-Americans and the government. Until now, the word had graphic meaning. True, shots had been fired in the fired in anger by Cuban exiles being from yet another commercial fishing But there had been no planned military-type operations. Then: "All of a sudden the Bahamian boats started rounding up the lobster and shooting everything in sight," said McMillan, a Florida sports-fisherman Deaths Lucille Cross Anthony Lucille Cross Anthony, 58, of 3720 Crawfordville Road, died Saturday at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital after a long illness. She was a native of Iron City, and had lived in Tallahassee most of her life.

She was a homemaker and a member of the Full Gospel Tabernacle. Survivors are her mother, Gussie D. Cross of Tallahassee; a sister, Grace Summer- (Continued from page 1B) To Willie Porter, a retired custodian with the Lewis State Bank, summer may not mean an odyssey to the classroom. But it does change his easy lifestyle. Seated in the center of the Tallahassee Mall, Porter said his summer days of fishing at nearby lakes will soon be replaced by hunting for squirrels and quail.

"I wish I were young but I still plan to enjoy whatever I can," the native of Tallahassee said. Robert and Sylvia Calhoun of Panama City were fleeing their city's rains Sunday, they said, as they and their two sons sat in a fast food restaurant in Tallahassee. The Calhouns' sons, Robbie, 13, and Colby, 9, said they were not ready to begin the school year. They still remeber, Robbie said, the family's weekly journeys to Panama City's beach.

A Bahamian sailor leaped aboard "waving a pistol and shaking like a leaf.

I thought they were going to blow our brains out." A 13-year-old boy, son of a Miami-based commercial fisherman on another boat, was shot in the head. His father was wounded. Thirty boats were herded toward Nassau. McMillian, who lives near Fort Lauderdale, was interviewed by a U.S. embassy official Saturday in a Nassau jail.

Sunday, his wife was still waiting to hear of his release. He and three guests on his 28-foot cabin cruiser, Novation, had planned a week of skindiving and fishing near Great Isaac. Great Isaac, site of a lighthouse, marks the southern flank of Northwest Providence Channel, which leads from the Florida Straits off Southwest Florida to Nassau on Providence Island. The waters around Great Isaac abound in spiny lobster and food fish, such as snapper and grouper. American-based commercial boats have been banned from it and all Bahamian-claimed waters for six years.

For the Cuban-Americans, it means they can fish neither the rich waters of their homeland, now Communist-dominated, nor the Ba- Eva Ruth Raker CRAWFORDVILLE Eva Ruth Raker, 59, of Crawfordville, died Saturday at her home after a brief illness.

PANAMA CITY Daniel James Grice 71, of Panama City, died Saturday in a Panama City hospital after a long illness. (Continued from page 1B) recorded officially. The 100-mile plus swim was originally set for July 14, but was repeatedly delayed by Cuban bureaucracy, bad weather and organizational errors. Her crew said the weather looked "good for 24 but they had heard conflicting reports on later weather. She said Saturday, "Once I start the swim I am not getting out of the water for anything short of a hurricane." Ms.

Nyad, brash and articulate, attracted over $100,000 dollars from different sponsors to help pay for the swim and she also has drawn enormous press coverage. Reporters and photographers representing 11 national and international press organizations accompanied her in chartered boats. The official open water swimming record is 60 miles across Lake Michigan by Abo-Heif, who made the swim in 34 hours in 1963. Ms. Nyad's possible record faces the prospect of being clouded because she is using a shark cage.

However, she is abiding by American rules that allow 1 no resting or flotation devices. "She is making it as hard as possible for herself. The swim would be recognized as a great feat even if she allowed herself to take rest stops," according to Dick Mullins, a Swimming Hall of Fame representative who will authenticate the swim. During the grueling month of training leading up to her swim, Ms. Nyad over-slept and ate prodigious amounts of food to store energy.

Saturday night she went to bed at 10 p.m. but was kept awake by nerves and a noisy celebration of the Cubans in their summer carnival. The woman who calls herself "Blabbermouth" was uncharacteristically quiet and subdued the morning of the swim. Earlier, as she dealt with the frustrations of preparation, she moaned, "The old cliche is, 'If you want something done, you have to do it But the problem is, nothing like this has ever been attempted before, and everything is new." Money- complained Colby, a fourth grader. "There's always homework every night and everything." But Mrs.

Calhoun begged to differ with her son. "Sure, I'm glad school is starting," the United Cerebral Palsy worker said. "I think they (her sons) have had a busy summer and they need to go back." Calhoun, an installer with Western Electric, said he would miss the backyard cookouts of summer, but said that even those had been rare because of the frequent rains. Bill Lyman, 28, a Stetson Coliege law school graduate, said he probably would not lament over summer's end. His work schedule as an assistant general counsel in Comptroller Gerald Lewis' office, he said, keeps him busy, as well as his two small sons and daughter.

"We came to Florida because of the warm weather," said the Elmira, N.Y. Swim- (Continued from page 1B) getting sponsors meant a manager and press agents. And it has all meant a budget that, Nyad says, has swelled to $134,000. "That kind of money is difficult to grab," says George Wallach, the agent Nyad linked up with in March. "First, it was hard to get people to understand what the swim was until the media hype began.

Then, the companies that could have merchandised it didn't have enough lead time." Wallach, 39, works out of Los Angeles. His biggest account is 1976 Olympic decathalon Bruce Jenner. The deal that put Jenner's exultant form on Wheaties boxes the world over is believed to be one of the most lucrative endorsements ever. Wallach met Nyad through a mutual friend. About her he says, "Diana Nyad the woman has more potential than the marathon swimmer.

She has come along at a time when there's a great deal of interest in women's accomplishments. And Diana has a certain charisma that's going to keep her marketable." Wallach, Nyad and New York press agents began knocking on corporate doors to raise They offered to paste ads onto the shark cage. They were willing to "name" the swim after a product. "None of that bothered me," Nyad says. "That was just business." She sells well.

She has a magnetic smile, never forgets a name, bubbles confidence and energy. More than that, Nyad can make a dull sport sound more courageous than battle. There are the creatures of the sea, pain squeezing every muscle, fatigue cruelly teasing the mind with hallucinations. NBC-TV bit first. They are paying $10,000.

They are getting exclusive access for filming from the shark cage, an exclusive interview moments before the swim, the first interview after it's over. Nyad says the NBC deal was pivotal. "Companies were scared to get involved," she says. "They were saying: what happens if she dies or gets eaten by a when we had the NBC contract to wave around, people began taking notice." Colgate-Palmolive noticed. Its first check was for the price of the shark cage about $42,000.

It asked nothing in return. Colgate's Hamby says the company frequently supports women's sports. hamas. Florida waters are too poor for commercial use, they say "there are more lobster traps than lobster," said one. Their boats generally are not suitable for long open-water crossings needed to reach Caribbean fishing grounds.

There have been minor skirmishes in the past. In late 1972, 20 Miami-based boats were caught on the Great Bahama Bank. A few shots were fired. The waters were cleared of all but Bahamians.

Lazaro Perez saw the patrol boat in the distance and tried to flee. But his old boat was too slow and the faster gunboat drew near. "The boat Flamingo started attacking me right then with spurts of bullets all at the same time," Perez told a Miami Herald reporter from a jail cell. He was wounded slightly, apparently grazed by heavy machinegun bullets. His son was nearly killed.

at Piedmont '78 Frey Williams Paper endorses Frey, Williams Democrat Jim Williams and Republican Lou Frey picked up the editorial endorsement of Orlando Sentinel Star Sunday in their race for the governor's mansion. "The main attraction of Jim Williams for us is his unchallenged integrity," the Sentinel said in an editorial. "Williams may not be quite as flashy as some of the other candidates, but that doesn't mean he's not more capable." The newspaper said Frey, who has lived in the Orlando area since 1961, is "a bright, sincere and honest fellow with a good working knowledge of how government can perform in the best interest of the people." The Sentinel called Frey's Republican opponent, drugstore magnate Jack Eckerd, a nice man but said his campaign was "a disgraceful effort to buy the governor's office." Unexpected guest Attorney General Robert Shevin spotted an unexpected but not unwelcome guest as he strode through the Gainesville Hilton last week on his way to a meeting room behind the hotel's coffee shop. Waiting drink-in-hand along with 30 other wellto-do members of the city's professional elite was developer Clark Butler, a financial supporter of Bruce Smathers one of Shevin's opponents in the Democratic race to succeed retiring Gov. Reubin Askew.

"I thought he was supporting Smathers," Shevin asked his life-long friend and Gainesville campaign chief, attorney Herb Schwartz. "He's got a Smathers bumper sticker on his car out there in the parking lot; at least I think that's his car." "I thought he was too," Schwartz replied. "Well," said Shevin, "he's a nice guy. I like him." Then the candidate smiled. "If he wants to give us a check, I'll take it," Shevin said.

In all, more than 30 people showed up for the Gainesville money-raiser, though only about a dozen had been expected. The haul totaled $2,000, more than Schwartz expects to spend in Alachua County. Butler didn't give, but he'll be contacted again, Shevin's aides said. Reception set Tuesday A money-raising reception for Sen. Betty Castor, Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor of the Williams-Castor ticket, will be held Tuesday from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

The donation is $10 per person. The reception will be held at the clubhouse of the Woodcrest Apartments, 275 John Knox Road. Notable quote Jack Eckerd's running mate, Paula Hawkins, stated her support for the elected Cabinet system in no uncertain terms last week. "I think you should elect all your officials, so if they don't do the job you can throw the bums out and get yourself some new bums," she said.
