Editing Rotary Club of Pensacola Suburban West

When the club was chartered, Rotary International had 448,000 members in 9,840 clubs scattered among 99 nations. Typically, the 1956-57 term of Harold Rose was primarily concerned with the many details of formation and the usual problems in new clubs of maintaining attendance and membership levels. The first author of this history, J. Harry Stump, joined the club in June 1957. During this Rotary year, District 242 became District 694, later to become District 6940. During Jim Marks’ term as president (1957-58), a “buddy system” and a system of fines were instituted to improve attendance. These were nominal and included fines of 10 cents and 25 cents, respectively when members’ names or pictures appeared in the local press. The Blue Angels became a symbol of the club and for many years their Commanding Officer was an honorary member of the club. Annually, the group attended one or more meetings, frequently presenting the program. Jim and Christine Marks initiated their practice of inviting the club members and wives to enjoy the beauty of Marlane Farms in early April. The first interclub meeting with the Cantonment, Florida club was held at Marlane on June 12, 1958. In order to have this outing, the club had to have a 100% attendance meeting which was accomplished on May 22, 1958. The outing consisted of a barbecue and interclub softball game. These and other weekly activities were faithfully reported by bulletin editor, Charles Schuster. Rotary International is an organization of Rotary Clubs (service clubs) located all over the world (more than 32,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas). ... The United States Navys Blue Angels (or Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron), formed in 1946, is the worlds first officially sanctioned military aerial demonstration team. ...

To further spur attendance, membership and Rotary indoctrination, a series of monthly “fireside meetings” was held during Huntley Johnson’s 1958-59 term of office. By January 1, 1959, membership had grown to 33. At that time Rotary Foundation spending for international scholarships was $340,000 per year and there were twenty-three Paul Harris Fellows. It is a measure of the success of that program that by 1979 spending was more than eight million dollars and the number of Paul Harris Fellows worldwide had risen to almost 45,000. The club established a scholarship fund at Pensacola Junior College and Howard Mitchell coordinated a joint club/school board program on youth counseling. The club participated in a joint meeting and Ladies Night with the local Rotary Clubs. Bill Maloy won the post-Christmas “loud tie” contest and during the joint meeting at Marlane’s in May, the club beat Cantonment 18-10. Bill Frizell and his 1959-60 board continued the battle to maintain and improve attendance and membership in a mobile society. The reputation for good fellowship which had become widely recognized had already been established and the bulletin editors Gordy Glenz and Marvin James refer to various members of “the Tank.” Vince Whibbs served as President of Junior Achievement and Ferd Roundy won the "loud tie” contest.

Ben Goodman became president for the Rotary year of 1960-61. During the year, Ben composed an “Orientation and Indoctrination Course” and “Induction Service” that were used for many years in the club and in many other clubs as far away as Bhavnagar, India. The boundaries of the Pensacola, Cantonment and SubWest clubs were established and a Scholarship Fund was begun by recognition of members’ birthdays and anniversaries (“birthaversaries”). Howard Mitchell was the song leader and the celebrant had to not only pay up but also listen to less than Robert Shaw renditions. During this year loans to Pensacola Junior College students totaled $480. Jack Tidwell took over as bulletin editor and Jim Marks served as President of the Florida Restaurant Association. Besides the annual softball competition at Marlane with Cantonment, the club participated in golf tournaments with Optimists and Kiwanians. The major thrust under Bill Manning during 1961-62 was on membership. From a low of 28 members of January 1, 1961, membership increased to 41 during this term, not reaching the goal of 50. In addition to the Pensacola Junior College loan fund, the club also donated $100 to the Association for Retarded children. For a number of years the umpire for the softball games at Marlane was Justin Weddell, a small, gentle but feisty man with defiantly flaring eyebrows. He came in many garbs, including one time as a blind man complete with seeing eye dog. This year he was formal, in morning coat, striped trousers, pearl-grey waistcoat, spats with ranch-style straw hat and umbrella. By the end of the game (won by Suburban West 6-5), most of the formal accoutrements had been shed. The 1962-63 term of Charles Schuster is the first record found of what was to become a major thrust of the club involvement in international concerns. The club donated to the People to People program and two of it's members, Jim Larkin and Vince Whibbs, were on their board. The club also provided half of the money for a student from the Netherlands to attend Escambia High School, under the American Field Service's program. Vince Whibbs was also serving as City Councilman, Jim Marks as Chairman of the Florida Tourism Council and Gordy Glenz as President of the Pensacola Sports Association. In the interclub golf tournament, Gordy (now a PGA official) was low man and we also had Tay Green, Bud Wanek, Bob Clemons and Gordy Tyrrell as flight winners. The club lost to Cantonment 8-5. Huntley Johnson took over as song leader but it was obvious that Howard Mitchell would be back.

The next two years, 1965-66, under Gordy Tyrrell and 1966-67 under George Gillette, are periods for which there is a paucity, indeed almost a lack of records. The emphasis on international affairs continued and the duties as program chairman were spread by using monthly chairmen. George also became concerned about the effect of advancing age and increased affluence on the waistlines of club members and instituted a "weight" losing program. Such records as we have indicate that Ron Eckerlein and Roy Hess had the hardest time in the "Battle of the Bulge”. John Webb won the 4H Award for work with rural youth in 1967 and Jim Marks built his new home at Marlane on the site of the softball diamond, ending the annual competition with the Cantonment, Florida Club. Near the end of George’s term, his son Ron and Blaine Fritz departed on a student exchange program to Chimbote, Peru, returning during the next term. Roy Hess served as our peripatetic president in 1967-68, later to be challenged in this title by Vince Whibbs. With “Fritz” Fritz as ramrod, a new Rotary Interact Club was formed at Woodham High School. Bill Wesanen again served as the District Governor’s special representative for N. W. Florida and also served as chairman for the 1968 District Conference which was sponsored by the Pensacola Clubs.

Politics were the order of the day during Harry Stump's 1970-71 term. Roy Hess and Gordy Tyrrell were re-elected as legislators and Pensacola native Reubin Askew was elected Governor of the State of Florida. There was hot interest in city-county consolidation and George Gillette’s Freeholder’s Association was instrumental in its demise. The club suffered a wrenching loss in the death of Dr. Al Stebbins who served as the club's “sunshine man” for many years. Al had a hat that he “brought back” many times from other members to the credit of the scholarship fund. He was replaced by Bill Hual who served as “Mr. Sunshine” and also as a member of DeLuna’s Court. Charlie Cox did an outstanding job in raising attendance percentages as did “Fritz” Fritz in coping with Rotary Interact during severe racial problems in the schools. The club contributed $1,000 to Chimbote, Peru for reconstruction of classrooms after an earthquake and Harold Grow received an honorary doctorate from the University of West Florida. The club also provided support to Escambia Residences (Home for Girls). Bill Spain took over the bulletin for a year and Sam Sparks replaced Gene Tomlinson on the board when he was transferred. A new committee organization was installed as being more responsive to our situation than the standard Rotary structure. The club received a number of awards during Ron Mitchell’s tenure in office-1971-72. The club became the only 700% club Rotary Foundation in the District, the Escambia High School Rotary Interact Club was voted the best north of Orlando, the club won the attendance prize at the District Conference in Walt Disney World and the club's continuing relationship with Chimbote, Peru received the Reader’s Digest “Town Affiliation Award” for the third straight year, the fifth time in all. The club heard for the firsst time “Fun and Fame, Sin and Shame-our New York number is Murray Hill 8-9933” from Paul Condon when he took over from Marv Courtney, a performance that has become the “Woolybooger” tradition in the club. Gordy Tyrrell won the “loud-blanket” contest and we elected our first Paul Harris Fellow, Harold Grow.

In 1975-76, the chair passed from Navy to Marines. Under Dave Kury, the club continued its ongoing projects - Safety Town, 4-Way test billboards, Pensacola Junior College loan programs, etc. It had provided $7,000 toward purchase of a bloodmobile for the city. Then, under “Tam” Tamburello, it initiated a fund to help Cambodian pilots who were here in training when their country fell, and, with Aubrey Gomillion’s leadership, served as host club for a Philippine Group Exchange. Recognition for activity in “Action 76" program was received. Efforts by Henry Newell raised the year's attendance average by 10% and Bill Frizell and Jim Marks were named Paul Harris Fellows. The club reached the 1200% plateau in support of Rotary Foundation and Rotary International has grown to 16,603 clubs with 774,500 members in 151 countries. All were saddened by the deaths of “founding father” Eugene Smith and Ferd Roundy, the club's long time treasurer. Spearheading the American Cancer Society fund drive, Howard Mitchell initiated the Cadillac Ball (door prize - a new Caddy), which continued for several years as an annual event. Admiral Dick Nauman was one of the four physicians nominated to Surgeon General of the United States. A committee headed by Sam Sparks worked with the District Governor to establish a new club in Milton, but could not generate enough local support to proceed. Dave Kury also initiated the S. O. B. Table for the “Slip Out Boys”. The club lost it's Murray Hill connection during the 1976-77 Rotary year when Paul Condon gave up the Woollybooger Act" to serve as president. The scholarship fund did not suffer, however, since Jim Hooper and Ed Kelley continued to raise money. The club's concern for the international scene continued with Dennis Warren, sponsored by our club, being chosen under the Group Study Exchange program. Harold Grow, through "People to People” brought us another Sister City - San Nin Chiu, Kaosiung, Taiwan. One of the year's highlights was a “This is Your Life” program by Vince Whibbs, Charles Schuster and Sam Sparks, honoring Harold Grow. At one point, the club reached 91.5% attendance for the month; one of the few times the club has led all of the Pensacola clubs in that category. A new program on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was initiated by Stan Totten and many members took the course. Chuck Long, Vince Whibbs and Bill Bond received awards from Action 76. Howard Mitchell was Man of the Year (Kiwanis) and Eric Ericson became our newest Paul Harris Fellow. Dave Kury and son, John Paul, represented the club in the Walkathon. All were saddened by the death of Jack Tidwell who served many years as club secretary.

The 1980-81 term of Bob Stone was a busy one. Early on, Paul Parks and John Brick as chief honchos on Safety Town managed to get it set up while Gayfers was unloading several trucks of furniture, using the same space and elevator.

Jim Hooper followed Ray Tipton into the presidential slot for the Rotary year of 1985-86. Jim led a large contingent of SubWest Rotarians and Rotary Ann’s (now known as partners) to the District 6940 conference held at the the San Destin Beach Resort in April 1986. Our honorary member and former charter member, Charles Schuster, was the District Governor for the Rotary year of 1985-86. President Jim also led a large group of Rotarians to the annual Jim and Christine Marks Marlane Farms outing. The azaleas were in full bloom and area Rotarians and guests enjoyed the Colonel Sanders Kentucky Fried Chicken with all the extra trimmings. Our former President, Vince Whibbs, was present as was the “He Coon” himself, Congressman Robert L. F. Sikes. Five new Paul Harris Fellows were added during Jim Hooper’s reign - Joe Driver, Sam (that’s SIAM) Smith, Ed Kelley, Gordon Tyrrell and Jim Hooper. The club had the honor of sponsoring a young graduate student as an Ambassadorial Scholar to Oxford. Dennis Warren was president for the 1986-87 Rotary year. Dennis devoted a great deal of time to improve the Safety Town program. The cars needed repairs and the miniature buildings needed repairs and repainting. President Dennis Warren was the same Dennis Warren that the club had sponsored as a member of the Group Study Exchange team to visit the Philippines for a month back in the 1976-77 Rotary year. Additional Paul Harris Fellows were added to our PHF board - Jim Marks, Jr., Al Godwin and Roger Mott. Roger Mott served during 1986-87 as president of the club. One of the first official duties was to represent our club at the Rotary International Convention held in Munich, Germany. The attendance of over 26,900 Rotarians from 114 countries greatly exceeded expectation. Past Rotary International President Dr. Carlos Canseco, gave a moving and challenging speech in which POLIO-PLUS was introduced as a mission for Rotary International to eradicate Polio from the nations of the world. Incoming President, Charles Keller, stated that he hoped to announce the achievement of raising US $121 million in pledges by the time of the Philadelphia convention in 1988. Rotary exceeded that amount by raising over US $240 million. The club raised a total of $17,523 over a three-year period. This article or section does not cite its references or sources. ...

John Brick was president for the 1990-91 Rotary year. Wilson Gilliat served as International Service Director. Paul Harris Fellow contributions of $2,000 were earmarked to purchase clinical and surgical equipment to support the Lighthouse for Christ Eye Center in Mombasa, Kenya. This project was proposed by Dr. Walter Pascall, a former member of the club. Tam Tamburello proposed that the club send a gift of $200 to the Rotary Club in Lota, Chile to purchase school books. The club helped to sponsor and entertain two Group Study Exchange teams, one from Brazil and one from Australia. Strong support was also given to the foreign students at Pensacola Junior College. Three Paul Harris Fellows were added: Mac Parker, Ed Holt and Mary Lou Condon. The change of command from John Brick to Al Godwin took place at the Pensacola Country Club on June 27, 1991. After Al and his staff had been introduced, Al was heard to say, “I’ll do my best with the staff you have given me.” His was indeed a year of “fun and fame, sin and shame” and his tongue-in-cheek roasting of fellow Rotarians was masterful. The club awarded a lifetime membership to our long time scribe and bulletin editor, Eric Ericson. The first lady Rotarian, Helen Chalk, was admitted to the club and three Youth Exchange Students from Australia were hosted by the club. The club was saddened by the death of our Chief Woolybooger and Past President, Paul Condon. The Rotary Foundation allowed clubs that had contributed money to the Polio-Plus campaign to use that money to make extra Paul Harris Fellowship Awards. This being the case, the following Paul Harris Fellow's were installed: Harry A. Stump (the younger), Al Johnson, Kirk Ball, Ferd Salomon, Mike Henderson, Al Swan, Bob Trotter, Skip Dennis, Stan Totten, Terry Halverson, Bill Henderson, Ken Pfieffer, Mo Hayes and Mike Pugh. The next change of command took place at the Braden Ball estate, farm and sand-green golf course.
