this community problem at the
meeting of the Euclid-Taylor

Must Reconvert
Non-Permit Job
On Single House
Converting a single dwelling
into a multiple dwelling with
out authority of the city’s
Building Department caused
the Board of Zoning Appeals,
meeting Tuesday, to give the
owner a 60-day deadline in
which to reconvert.
Elmo N. Hockman, owner of
the premises at 1657 Elberon
ave., appealed to the board
from an order of the city en
gineer dated August 13th re
quiring the conversion by Aug
ust 30th. The appelant also
requested time to permit to
study the feasibility of con
verting the property.
Upon the recommendation of
the engineer, M. S. Douglas,
the board set a 60-day dead
line. Inspection of the dwelling
revealed living quarters on the
first and second floor, it was
reported.
Appeal of the Memorial
Auto Livery, Robert and Ray
Hess, proprietors, to construct
two concrete block buildings on
the rear of 1755 Coit rd., was
continued. The buildings would
be used to house the company’s
hearses, limousines and patrol
cars used in their livery busi
ness. The company has out
grown its Orinoco ave. quar
ters where it has been housed
for the past ten years.
The question of the location
of a garage at 1276 Bender
ave., was continued on request
of the appellant.
Three requests for proposed
temporary rooming house li
censes were approved. In each
instance a change of owner
ship is contemplated.
Mrs. E. T. Osborne, 1846
Allendale ave., was granted
her request to board three chil
dren, pending granting of the
necessary state license.
THIS
THAT
In East Cleveland
Shaker Heights police are
handing out tickets to need
lessly noisy trucks. A good idea.
Some of them certainly can be
annoying.
With the horror of the traf
fic aftermath of the Labor Day
weekend fresh in mind, it
might behoove Ohioans to fol
low the example of Connecticut
whoes safety slogan is: “The
License You Lose Will Be Your
Own.” Speeders, on first con
viction get a 30-day license
suspension on second-convic
tion, 60 days. Result: first six
months 1958, 86 deaths first
six months 1955 (suspensions
began) 150 deaths. During this
period there have been 10,346
suspensions. Walking speeders
have time to think, commented
one violator.
One wonders how a member
of a family dan suddenly ap
pear with a new possession the
size and value of a bicycle, and
not be questioned as to whence
it came.
How indifferent can a parent
become in the matter of teach
ing their children their moral
and legal obligations as to
ownership. Or do parents
“talk” and fail themselves, to
practice honesty.
Eight-year-old Dawn Theri
ault, hospitalized for months
after being run down by an
automobile, finally was able
to ride a bicycle but not
for long. Someone stole it. Cer
tainly no child could come home
with a practically new bicycle
and not be questioned by the
family, if they had not pro
vided the wherewithal to pay
for it.
Bicycles alone, are not a
wrong to take. The wrong ap
plies to anything which right
fully belongs to another. It’s
a pretty serious trait of char
acter and it demands immedi
ate action, direction, guidance,

In Tax Hike
East Cleveland property
owners will pay an increase of
$1.80 per thousand in property
tax begining with January 1st,
1959. Of the $1.80, the city rate
is up 80c, the school rate up
80c, the county rate up 30c
and there is a cut of from 60c
to 50c in the state rate. (Ko
rean War Bonus).
Tentative overall rates an
nounced by County Auditor
John G. Carney for East Cleve
land are $33.10, compared to
the current $31.30.
In a breakdown of the city’s
new $8.90 per thousand tax
cost, Robert Moore, executive
assistant to the City Manager,
announces that the city’s 80c
increase is due to an increased
60c operating cost and a 20c
increase in bond retirement
costs.
Mrs. Ruth Morin, clerk
treasurer of the East Cleve
land Board of Education states
there is no increase in the
school’s $16.88 operation costs.
The entire 80c increase (from
$1.02 to $1.82) goes into the
bond retirement fund, paying
off the bonds voted for the
new pool and music-lounge
buildings.
Explaining further, Mrs.
Morin says that under a state
law school boards pay interest
only on bonds the first year.
Having done this one year, be
ginning with January 1959 the
board will start payments of
both principal and interest.
The overall new total tax
rate, of $33.10, then, is divided
as follows:
New Old
City ...............$ 8.90 $ 8.10
School .............. 18.70 17.90
County .............. 5.00 4.70

City Has Good
Weekend Record
East Clevelanders and per
sons traveling through the city
managed to keep an excellent
holiday traffic score. Not one
serious accident was reported,
and the number of minor inci
dents was less than many a
normal three-day period has
listed.
One car, taken from its park
ing spot in front of 13704 Mann
ave. was found two hours later
near 13716 Rugby rd. Frank
LaSalvia, the owner, told police
he parked the car, leaving the
keys in the ignition since he
had planned to use it soon.

This Is What Firemen Look
For In Home Inspection Tour
“The East Cleveland Fire De-,
partment will begin its seventh
annual Home Inspection Pro
gram on about October 1st,
1958”, states Fire Chief Fred
W. Lange. “Our success” says
Lange, “has been outstanding
since its inception in 1951. Fires
in homes have decreased by
more than 25% over this period,
while all National fire losses
percentages have increased.
This speaks very well for the
cooperation of our citizens jn
East Cleveland.
“Our firemen will be in uni
form and the fire apparatus on
the street for proper identifica
tion at all times. The firemen
will be in direct contact with
the fire station by two-way
radio at all times, ready for
any alarm which might occur
during their inspection tour.
“The firemen will ask permis
sion to inspect your basement
or utility room and also your
garage and backyard. It is our
intent that he offer suggestions
to you for corrections which
may save you from a serious
fire at some future date. It is
our hope that we will, again,
receive your complete cooper
ation.”
Many housewives will un
doubtedly want to do a little
“slicking up” in preparation for
the firemen’s visit—so here’s
what the inspector will be hop
ing to find:
1. Evidence of careful smok
ing habits—plenty of large,
sturdy ashtrays, for example—
and a “no-smoking-in-Kti**^^®

Students Out
To Top All
Past Records
midst of the usual ex­
citement of the opening days
of school, Shaw High student
body is setting its sights on
something outside of the class
room but mighty import
ant to that intangible known as
school spirit. It’s their third
annual One in 10,000 General
Admission Football Ticket Sale.
The date is Monday, September
8th.
On that day—for two houre
only—from 7 to 9 p. m., 30
teams of sixteen high powered
co-ed salesmen each, will solicit
ticket sales from door to door.
They will have in hand these
special One in 10,000 general
admission tickets to Shaw
Stadium good for any one of
the team's 1958 five home
games.
Last year $7200 was the re
ward for the One in 10,000
campaign. It is hoped to at
least equal this sum this year.
These tickets, which not only
mean a game to be enjoyed,
mirror the support of East
Clevelanders for the entire ath
letic program at Shaw. The
football income shouldei's the
budget for basketball, track,
swimming, wrestling, tennis,
golf, and baseball.
The pretty Co-ed in the one
in 10,000 cartoon is Susan Ries.
Susan made a good sales record
last year and hopes to do the
same again on Monday.
Furthermore, these One in
10,000 tickets will not be avail
able at any other time. Only
from 7 to 9 p. m. Monday, Sep
tember 8th. Anyone wrho may
not be at home tne night to get
his tickets, may leave the nec
essary dollars with a neighbor.
The One in 10,000 ticket car
ries a bonus. Add 25c to it and
it will be exchanged for a re
served seat. This little trans
action can take place at the
gate, at any store where Shaw
lootoail tickets are sold, or at
the Athletic Office, second floor
of Shaw Tech building. Yes, for
any one of the five home games.
While the ticket march itself
does not get underway until 7
o’clock the Ticket Sale Day pro
gram starts with a preamble, as
it were, on Shaw’s front lawn
at 2 p. m. Disc jockeqs Bob
Ancell and Phil Mulean will
broadcast from the site.
Also, preceding the sale,
Shaw Band, aboard a truck, will
ballyhoo the sale. This music
through the streets will remind
all Cardinal fans that this is
the day they shell out for Shaw
at one dollar per with as
many “pens” as inclination and
purse can afford.
Salesmen selling the mo^
tickets will be awarded a 4xa
inch gold trophy. To be en
graved on it will be the stud
ent's name and the campaign
year.
Friday night at a sloppy joe
supper in Shaw Cafeteria the
same volunteer crew of sales
men will be given 12,000 letters
to be distributed to East Cleve
landers. These letters will re
mind them of the visit to be
made next Monday by the tick
et sellers. Distributors is to be
finished in time for everyone
to go to the Pigskin Preview at
Shaw Field.
The One in 10,000 idea has no
copywrite. If it had Shaw
High’s Athletic Department
might have been in for juicy
plums, since six schools have
already adopted this Louis-orig
inal ticket sales program.
During the past few weeks
athletic managers from Raven
na and Ashland school high
schools have spent several
hours each with Manager Louis,
checking his scrap books and
becoming acquainted with the
unique ticket selling program
which has sparked the past two
grid seasons here.
In the Cleveland area three
high schools have adopted the
idea. Today the Euclid Panthers
are holding their One in 10,000
ticket drive. Holy Name High
School and Garfield Heights are
ready to launch their cam
paigns.
