This will be followed by the National Anthem end the invocation by Dr. Howard M. Wells, minister of First Pres byterian Church and president of Dime March Reaches Half Way Mark Goal .. .________ $12,000 Reported ______ $ 6,600 Drive Ends January 31st Just five days to go and more than $5000 to raise. That is how East Cleveland’s balance sheet in the 1950 infantile paralysis fund drive stands as of Tuesday, ac cording to figures announced by Chairman Stanton Adams. However, it is well to remem ber that Judge Addams feels East Cleveland should surpass its goal since it received $15, 000 from the polio fund for its own new polio cases in 1949. Up to Tuesday evening L. B. Keith, the treasurer, had counted $6,600, representing the returns on the personal canvass up to that time. Included in this report are the gifts of eight additional organiza tions within the city, namely, Glenville Chapter 359 Order of Eastern Star, Welsh Boosters Club, Daughters of the British Em pire St. Paul’s Chapter, East Cleveland Lions Club, East Cleve land American Legion Auxiliary, East Cleveland Woman’s Club and the Woman’s Board of Huron Road Hospital. Chairman Addams announces that persons who have not been contacted, even though a canvasser has called on them more than once, may give their contribution to fight the battle against polio by either dropping it in the collec tions being taken at the local movie houses, or into one of the miniature iron lung boxes to be found on the counter in your neighborhood stores. In either case, your gift will be credited to East Cleveland. Checks may also be sent to the East Cleveland March of Dimes, L. B. Keith, treasurer, and ad dressed to East Cleveland City Hall. Although East Cleveland’s new polio cases ir\ 1949 cost the Infan tile Paralysis Foundation $15,000, the city’s goal in the 1950 cam paign is still $12,000. With the $6,600 reported up to Tuesday from the personal canvass, this leaves over $5,000 to be collected through the miniature iron lung boxes about town, the theatre col lections and group and additional individual gift*. Give! “What percentage of high school graduates go to college, what per centage starts to work upon gradu ation, and are curriculums being set up to meet the needs of both groups This was the subject discussed be fore the January meeting of the East Cleveland Ministerial Associ tion, a breakfast hour at Winder mere Methodist church Tuesday, January 17th.

The parcel in question would have been occupied by a bowling alley. Despite the promises of the pro ponents that the alleys would be of such modern construction as to be noiseless from without and under the best of management, property owners held they would be a nuisance, add parking prob lems, bring undesireable persons into the area, lower valuation of abutting properties, and in short, were just not the type of improve ment to bring into the neighbor hood. W4 ■I 't' Two former Shaw High athletes will be in the line-up for the Hat tendorf-Bliss Rockets, when they meet the East Cleveland Senior All Stars in the feature game of the Medical Fund Carnival at Kirk Junior High tomorrow night (Fri day). Jack Palmer and Jim Farrar are the ex-Cardinals who cavort for the leaders of the Euclid Class A league and who undoubtedly will face former teammates in the All Star’s line-up. Bill Market physical director of the East Cleveland Y, has gone all out to give fans a complete, fast moving cage program for the slim sum of thirty-five cents. Opening the card at 7:00 p.m. will be a clash between Class League leaders Dick Fort’s “Cubs” against Olympian Club of the Jun ior Hi-Y circuit. The second game will match Hi-Y leaders from Shaw against East Tech. Preceding the main attraction at 9:00 p.m., the Parkwood Methodist will face an all-Star quintet from the Y Church League. Managers of the teams in the Y sponsored Senior league got to gether Tuesday night and selected the following player for the East Cleveland All-Stars to face the Hattendorf-Bliss Rockets: Ed Asher (Fenn Flasher), Bill Knapp (Anderson Spring Co.), Kwiran (Ziehm Undertakers). Bob Kelly (Diamonds), Ted Brunst (Calvary), Karl Will (Fenn Flash es). Al Russ (Koenigs), Feisley (Nela Park), Russ Hurst (Ander son Spring Co.), Chuck Andonian (Diamonds), and Tom Hamm (Koenigs). Americanism is the topic for the February meeting of East Cleve land Post 163 Auxiliary and what could be more American than base ball. Since the Legion has been actively interested in baseball for the young fry, the Auxiliary has secured James Ross Muddler, man ager of the Post’s Blue and Gold teams, as the speaker. They also have invited the Legion to come and hear Ross speak. Mothers of the boys in the tu’o teams are also invited to this meeting to be held Wednesday,February 1st at 8 p. m. in the Post home, Hawley Park. Mrs. Wesley Mattern, American ism chairman will be in charge of the program. Ross Muddler will have charge of East Cleveland Post 163 Junior Baseball teams again in 1950, for his tenth year. In 1940 Enos Fry of the Post convinced Mr. Muddler, who had been in the baseball managing business then for many years, that he should take over' direction of the East Cleveland Post team. Ac cordingly, in 1941 the East Cleve land teams were organized and two teams each year has been the story ever since. The East Cleveland Legion Aux iliary supported the Golds in 1949 while the Post continued to sup port the Blues. The rivalry of these two “brother” outfits reveals the Fight Polio 4 With Dimes stronger than 3.2 beer could b« issued for East Cleveland under its zoning ordinance. He said no new permits had been issued here for about 11 years. The parcel in question is a lot with a 96-ft. frontage on Euclid ave. and extends 325 feet south. The plan, as outlined by City Man ager Chas. A. Carran in giving tha basis on which the Zoning Board recommended the re-zoning re quest, is to erect a 30 60 foot restaurant at street level seven feet in from the sidewalk to th* front. In the rear of this thera would be accommodations for park ing 45 to 50 automobiles. The one story bowling alley, with 15 lanes, would be erected to the extrema rear of the lot. The front 172 feet of the lot has been zoned for business since 1922. The balance is residential and it is the balance for which the re zoning is asked. Building the alleys at the rear, said opponents, would bring them in their back yard. During the heated discussion At torney Milton T. Daus, speaking for the owner, May Rose Scigel, declared they still had the right to build an alley on the front of the lot. He introduced bowling al ley managers to testify that alleys were not a nuisance. Dr. C. P. Landgrebe presented a protesting petition signed by prac tically 100', of abutting property owners. Speaking against the re-zoning were W. W. Hannon, C. J. F. Smith, H. L. Spence, Arthur Shive ly, George Neill, all of Burnette ave. and J. H. Juergens speaking for the Jon Vaks, also of Burnette. Carl Nagel spoke for the Hastings ave. property owners. Citing their objections, the property owners stated that nono of them had been notified of tho proposed i-e-zoning and knew nothing of it until a news item in last week’s East Cleveland Leader I told of this Tuesday night’s hear ing. They felt they should have been notified and thus given the opportunity to appear before the zoning board.
