In East Cleveland
March
In line with the Mothers
for Polio Thursday night, Janu
ary 28th, the East Cleveland Aux
iliary Police plan to have approx
imately 30 men on patrol to assist
the ladies.
This group recently added eleven
new members, and has just com
pleted a course in special police
training given by Lieut. Pat
O’Malley of the Police Depart
ment.
They are at present servicing
all basketball games at the new
Shaw gymnasium. Certainly an
exemplary community group.
Probably Cleveland’s most prized
possession is its community spirit.
It has made and continues to keep
thd- suburb the pride and joy of
all of its residents. Nor is this
community spirit kept alive by its
adults alone. Our young people
reveal their share in many ways.
For instance, down at Miami V
Freshman Prudie Hesche (1826
Roxford) thinks so much of her
city and school affairs that she
cuts pictures and articles out of
the East Cleveland Leader and
posts them on her bulletin board
for all comers to see.
Hurrah for suck a spirit.
Wednesday and Thursday, k Jan
uarj* 27-28 are important days
here. On these days East Cleve
land will say to Red Cross “Here
are so many pint of blood for your
blood bank.” How many? It Is
hoped 360. It can be done. Call

Rink Studies
And then it rained. So ended the
few hours of skating at Forest
Hills Park for this season to date.
Once again the city was ready.
The weatherman brought in a cold
wave Sunday and Monday. The
ice on the park lake finally tested
more than four inches thick—the
required thickness to hold the
crowd of skaters.
“Skating” was the call through
the schools and Monday afternoon
and evening found the ice being
enjoyed to the utmost by crowds
of skaters, young and old.
And then it rained. Skating time

At what age should a child enter

Superintendent of nine 'tool
dis*“irts met in East Clev k-.and
Tu Jay upon the invitation of Dr.
O. J. Korb, superintendent of
schools, to discuss studies of child
developn which have given rise
to this q—stion.
Following their discussion which
concerned itself with a child’s
physical development, social and
mental adjustment and academic
achievement, it was decided that
further study is needed before a
change in age entrance can be
recommended to their Boards of
Education.

fire early Sunday morning, Janu

Conkle, who with his wife oc
cupies the second floor, was given
oxygen and rushed in a police
ambulance to Huron Road Hospi
tal. His condition is reported as
“fair.”
A defective fireplace in the first
floor occupied by Mr. and Mrs.
Earl H. Miller permitted ashes to
fall through to the basement, said
Chief Fred W. Lange.
The department used their fog
nozzles to good advantage in
quenching the widespread fire,
which had spread through an out
side wall to the third floor. The
blaze was under control within an
hour. Chief Lange was in charge
of operations.
Blood Donor
Recruits Ask
MoreSigners
With January 27 and 28 loom
ing closer and closer for the two
day Bloodmobile visit to East
Cleveland, committee members
under Mrs. K. G. Watkins are re
doubling their efforts to reach all
sections of the East Cleveland
community.
Ellsworth Shumate, in charge of
contacting auto dealers, has
reached the management of all
auto dealers in East Cleveland, and
finds them willing to have their
employees make appointments to
donate blood during working
hours. “I have tried to tell them
that the need is great now, and
that for the small amount of time
it takes, they are meeting their
own or someone else’s need,” says
Mr. Shumate.
East Clevelands Business As
sociation members have been
reached by- Retail Business chair
man Karl Brown. Cards for blood
donors are available at Kennedy’s
Men’s Shop on Noble rd., Carlson
Printing on Euclid, Karl Browns
Colonial Inn, Rendleshaiji’s Insur
ance agency on Beersford and
Euclid, and at Gilbert’s Beverage
Store at Euclid and Superior. Any
one desiring to make this much
heeded contribution can just stop
at any one of these places and
the card. “The support and
rt of the East Cleveland busi
ness community is behind the
drive,” says Mr. Brown.
Industrial groups have been the
special work of Robert Lucas, who
finds that most employers are
willing to donate time for their
employees to donate blood. “We’re
all busy people, but the time in
volved is short, and the need con
tinues to be great,” according to
Mr. Lucas.
Mrs. George Davis enlisted the
help of her parents in addressing
the cards which accompanied the
letters to all East Cleveland serv
ice clubs. “We had hoped for a
real response from these groups,”
Mrs. Davis says, “but perhaps
these people will be signing up
soon. Certainly we need every one
we can get.”
Kenneth Vermillion, who is re
sponsible for Parent Teacher
groups, is sure that the mothers in
the community will come through
with their usual response to an
important challenge.
Police, firemen and city employ
ees are being lined up by Otto
Swancar, who is also seeing to it
that firemen are available for the
heavy job of unloading the Red
Cross truck when it pulls up at St.
Paul’s Church next Wednesday
morning.
Make your appointment through
any of the business places listed,
or through the Blood Donor chair
