Seven Well Balanced
Teams Give Euclid
Top Notch A League
Euclid today can boast of having
one of the strongest Class A Ama

Cleveland with seven teams of al
most equal caliber performing on
the local hardwoods.
Under the direction of Ford L.
Case, the circuit will swing into
high gear immediately after the
holidays.
Up until now the teams have
put on a good show and those fans
who sat in on the games will read
ily agree that we have top notch
amateur basketball here in town.
In looking over the league roster,

are continuing their activities in
one of the sporting world’s fastest
games as basketball is often
called. While not quite on par in
speed as hockey, the way the cage
sport is played today, you must
have stamina to go along with
alertness, deception and ‘good phy
sical condition.
Take any one of the seven teams
in this year’s Class A league, pick
out just two of the outstanding
players (and in most cases this
would be hard to do) put them on
one team and Euclid would have
an All-Star team that could com
pete against the best Cleveland
could offer.
One of the surprise quintets this
year is the Browns Sport Goods
team, one of the older groups in
the league, which has served notice
that the championship won’t be a
walk-away. Two of the outstand
ing players on this up and coming
aggregation are Neal Nelson and
Jack McArthur. Neal, while at
Shore High, was rated high on the
list of all-time best performers in
the cage sport for the Admirals.
While he didn’t carry on in college
competition as much as in high
school, he was considered highly at
Kent State University for his ath
letic achievements. McArthur, bet
ter known for his gridiron per
formance while with the Illinois
Big Ten powers—has shown he is
no slouch when it comes to putting
the ball through the hoop.
The Willoughby Hogan Buicks,
current undefeated leaders in the
local league, appear as one of the
strongest fives to date. Under the
leadership of Carl Hecker, the
Buicks (who have backer Dan Ho
gan at practically every game lend
ing moral support) have spurted
ahead mainly on the fine play

courts of the College beats where

Defending champions, the Hat

Stan Minotas, are determined to
repeat but will find the going much

The most recent addition to the'

former Willoughby and Wickliffe

Plan For Continued Fight Against
Spread Of Tuberculosis In Ohio
“Our biggest problem is to make
people realize that no one can be
safe from tuberculosis until every
case is found and hospitalized,”
Azel Ames, M. D., Hamilton, presi
dent of the Ohio Tuberculosis and
Health Association, stated today as
he called a meeting of his Board
of Directors to discuss how this job
can best be done.
The Board of Directors of the
Association represents each of the
88 county tuberculosis associations
throughout the state. These asso
ciatic^is are charged with the job
of leading the fight for tuberculosis
control in their areas. Their
source of funds is the annual
Christmas Seal Sale now being car
ried on throughout the state.
“The average citizen doesn’t see
much tuberculosis any more,” Dr.
Ames said “Nevertheless, we had
more new cases of this disease re
ported last year than any other
year for which we have records.
Over 9,000 new cases were report
ed in 1948. This is 1,700 more than
we had in 1947.
“Tuberculosis is catching. It is
passed from one person to another
by sneezing, coughing, and spitting
the germs out where someone else
can breathe them in,”
pointed out. “We can

problems of controlling the disease

The problems are:
The Need for More Tubercu
losis Hospital Beds: Ohio has
only 3,500 such beds and needs
about 5,000 if all known cases
are to be given proper care
and treatment.
(1)
(2)
Increase in New Cases: In 1948
the Ohio Department of
Health recorded 9,430 new
cases of tuberculosis for the
year. This is the largest num
ber ever reported. Most of the
increase is due to the mass X
ray surveys co-sponsored by
local tuberculosis associations
and financed by Christmas
Seals.
Tuberculosis in General Hos
pitals: Limited surveys of pa
tients admitted to general hos
pitals indicate that many of
them also have tuberculosis. As
many as four persons in every
100 admitted for other causes
may also have tuberculosis.
The problem is to find these
cases before they infect other
patients, and the doctors, nurs
es and attendants who are
taking care of them.
Investigation of Patients Pay
ing for their Own Care in Hos
pitals: The law requies that a
patient’s financial ability to
pay must be investigated when
that pdtient is admitted to a
tuberculosis hospital. Instances
are known where property has
been sold and mortgages made
in order to pay for such hos
pitalization. This situation
often causes the patient to
get out of bed and go home
rather than lose his property.
As a net result he usually
loses his life and infects some
of his family with tuberculosis.
Better Local and State Health
Services: No tuberculosis pro
gram can succeed without good
health services in the state
and local Boards of Health.
In the past the
ment of Health

ice it wants to
people because it hasn’t had
enough money. Only the Legis
lature can provide this. On a
local level there are too many
part-time health departments
that are poorly staffed and
poorly supported by the com
munity. The needs of the peo
ple can never be met until
radical changes are made in
the organization and financing
of these departments.
Better Local Tuberculosis As
sociations: The burden of the
tuberculosis education cam
paign and in many instances
the case finding efforts of a
community depend entirely
upon the local tuberculosis as
sociation. This association is
financed by the sale of Tuber
culosis Christmas Seals* and
not by taxation. We must seek
new ways of strengthening the
local associations and provide
them with enough money,
through the sale of Christmas
Seals, to carry out the tuber
culosis program in every
county.
“These are some of the problems
which must be solved,” said Dr.
Ames, “If Ohio and its 88 counties
ever hope to be free of tubercu
losis. The bill for hospitalization
alone is well over 15 million dollars
a year. We know how to control
tuberculosis we know how it can
be eliminated. All we need is com
munity support and understanding,
and we can relieve ourselves of this
tremendous burden.”

Ebert Tells Why
Paint Blisters:
Suggests Remedy
One of the common cause* of
paint blistering on the exterior of
today’s homes is failure to provide
vapor barriers between the walls
and siding, Alfred Ebert of the
painting and decorating firm of
Louis Ebert and Son told the
Builders Exchange home-building
class this week.
Most owners blame paint blister
ing on either workmanship or the
quality of paint used, but in the
majority of cases, investigation
has disclosed the absence of ade
quate vapor barriers, Mr. Ebert
said. Only occasionally is it attri
butable to inferior paint.
“There is a vast difference be
tween today’s home* and those
built years ago,” the speaker
pointed out. “In former years, the
average home left plenty of room
for vapor to escape through the
walls, windows and other small
openings. Today, most homes being
built are well insulated, windows
are protected by storm windows
and the tendency is for accumu
lated vapor to seep through the
walls and seek its outlet through
the siding. It is not certain whether
the blisters are caused by the pres
sure that accumulates or because
the vapor penetrates the paint
film, but the result is the same in
either case.”
The time to provide the vapor
barrier, of course, is while the
home is under construction, Mr.
Ebert said. However, if the trouble
occurs on a home already built,
it is still possible to remedy the
fault by removing wall paper or
other covering and paint the in
terior of the home with any one of
the numerous vapor barrier ma
terials now on the market.
Mr. Ebert said the present ten
dency in exterior painting is away
from the use of straight lead and
oil paints and toward the multiple
pigment materials more recently
developed by the paint manufac
turers. These newer materials have
many advantages over the straight
oil and lead paints, he declared.
For one thing, they do not show
up dirt as soon.
Many owners are now utilizing
various colors on the outside of
homes, a trend w’hich adds interest
to a street or neighborhood.
Mr. Ebert gave the class numer
ous tips on painting and decorating
the interior of their homes. He
recommended two coats of paint
for ceilings if a good plastering
job has been done and three coats
on side walls. Semi-gloss or gloss
paint should be reserved for the
bathroom and kitchen and flat
paint for other rooms, he recom-

mended. He also urged the use of
good quality bxushaa for best re
sults.
“When yo* paint or decorate
your own home*’ the speaker said,
“choose colors you like, not those
that others tell you are in vogue.
After all, the home should reflect
your personality and you are the
one who will live in it for years
to come. You are the one who must
be comfortable and happy if home
ownership is to accomplish its main
purpose.”
“Limit yohrself to three or four
main colors in a room, but be cer
tain to maintain a balance in your
selection,” he urged. “Too much of
any one color in a room can easily,
spoil the effect over a period of
time.
“The best way to decorate a
room is to select all the materials
for it in advance—the carpeting,
draperies, wall covering and lamps
—and make certain each blend*
with the other. If these things are
bought piecemeal, the odds are
against the colors being properly
matched.”
Mr. Ebert’s lecture was the ninth
in a series of ten on home-building
subjects, sponsored by the Builders
Exchange in connection with its
HomeExpo. The present course will
end next Tuesday evening at the
Exchange auditorium, 1737 Euclid
ave.
A new series will begin shortly
after January 1st and is already
booked to capacity, according to
Charles Wesley Jauch, executive
secretary. Advance registration is
an admissio nrequirement but the
course is free and open to the
public.
