Fonts have a mind of their own

My page has fonts that seem to be any size that they want no matter what I change them to. I have set up a style for them and that didn’t work. So I changed the titles by hand and that help some of them but not all of them.
Like at the bottom of this page
http://homepage.mac.com/pageone3/sotapril/medforda.html
is “Quail Point” it is suppose to be +1 like the others. In fact they are all suppose to be the same size but they aren’t.

While you are looking, why is the background of my headline logo “southern Oregon…” see thru in page set up but opaque when it is previewed.

TIA

You appear to have different styles applied to your headers

.style67 120% is used on most of them

but the Quail one has

.style 68 150%

You would be better to create styles like

H1, H2, heading, subheading etc. and use point or px sizes eg 20point or 20px

It also makes it easier for you to keep track of them if they have a meaningful name - if you also use the setting in the inspector - permanent styles only - then choosing the right style from the inspector will mean you dont have to wade through a big list. Click on the cog in the styles palette>permanent styles only.

Excellent suggestion. Stick to H styles and edit these to look like
whatever you want. If you need more, just add a new style, put the
required ‘H#’ into the Tag field (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, etc.) and
delete what’s in the Name field.

Be aware that H styles are paragraph-level styles, so they will apply
to complete paragraphs at once; you can’t apply them to just part of
a paragraph.

Also be aware that H styles are automatically given a kind of
paragraph spacing above and below. If you don’t want the text to drop
down slightly then you’ll need to add ‘Space Before’ to the paragraph
section of the style and set it to 0px.
