Injury Riddled
Cardinals Face
Euclid Friday
Down but far from out, the
Cardinals of Shaw will be out to
even their mark in the Lake
Erie League when they play
host to Euclid’s undefeated
Panthers on Friday night.
This is the week that Shaw
is due to be “up” if the 1958
season record to date holds true.
Since opening the season in
a blaze of scoring against
Brush, the Cards have found
their efforts falling into a
pattern.
The Brush verdict was fol
lowed by a hard-luck loss to a
perked up Collinwood team.
Coach Don Drebus did a bit
of shuffling and the Shaw lads
responded with an upset victory
over a good Sandusky squad.
Last week, the highly touted
Parma Redmen invaded and
managed to squeak through
with a 6-0 verdict. However, in
the process the west aiders
added further woes to Coach
Don Drebus and his boys as the
injury list grew to seven for
the season.
Shaw’s misfortunes along in
the injury line hit early in the
Parma game as Captain Dick
Vaughn sustained a dislocated
elbow the very first play of
the game.
As mentioned, the “pattern”
may just be the medicine needed
by the Cards to bring about a
victory.
By the record, Friday Is
Shaw’s turn to win.
“We’ve been doing a lot of
shuffling of personnel this
week” said Coach Drebus, “and
whether or not our efforts will
jell in time for the Euclid game
remains to be seen.”
Defensively the Cardinals
have faired well but the big
problem remains with the
offense.
Hobbling Cards along with
Dick Vaughan are guard Mark

Bolton Lauds
Unity Of
85th Congress
Non-partisan concern for the
nation’s welfare made possible
the many constructive achieve
ments of the Eighty-Fifty Con
1 gress. Congressman Frances P.
Bolton told the East Cleveland
Hi-Twelve at a luncheop meet
ing at the Lake Shore Country
Club today.
Spiritual power engendered
by daily prayers enabled the
Congress to put aside much
petty political strife, the Con
gressman declared.
Citing Communist attacks
upon mutual security and na
1 tionai defense Ihidgets, Con
gressman Bolton said the Con
gress ignored sniping from the
left and from the right to do
what members believed would
best protect freedom in America
and in the world.
With diabolical cunning, Con
gressman Bolton declared, the
Communist enemy seeks to pit
brother against brother, and na
tion against nation.
4 Th® non-partisan character
of the 85th Congress, she as
serted, was evidence at national
unity and soundness of purpose
in the face of grave danger
from the anti-religious forces
seeking to conquer the world.

Eugene W. Commery, super

Electric Large Lamp depart

65 he has had more than 42
years of service at Nela Park.
Few men have given more
to the development and utiliza
tion of the unrealized beauty of
modern light than Commery,
known throughout the world as
an authority on residential
lighting problems and their so
lutions. His skill is also valued
in th® field of television. His
books on home lighting have
culminated in the most widely
read publications for laymen.
Long a resident of Shaker

Luckily Kent Andrews who

was pronounced ok after A go

Despite the injuries, Coach
Drebus has found his boys in
good spirits and they will
answer the whistle for the
game against Euclid on Friday.
Athletic Director Bob Louis
issued a reminder that the
Euclid-S)iaw game has always
created crowd interest thus it
would be wise to “get to the
Stadium early if you want a
seat.”
Let’s go Shaw—stop the

Newsboy Week
Salute Honors
Leader Carrier
.Richard Vago
No retirement plans yet!
This was the reaction we got
this week when questioning
Richard Vago, junior at Shaw
High about his Leader route
that covers the Savannah-Poto
mac-Northfield area.
Being National Newsboy
Week, we selected Richard as
one of our typical carriers in
East Cleveland.
Also it was noted that the
Shaw student is one of the older
carriers in years of service and
naturally we were interested in
his association with our paper.
“Since I first started carry
ing the Leader, I found the
walking helped keep in shape”
said Richard “especially now
that I have put forth mv ef
forts in athletics at Shaw”.
At present, Richard is on the
varsity football squad at Shaw,
eager to make good as an end.
He also plans to continue his
efforts with the Cardinals in
basketball and track where
leg work means a great deal.
A conscientious carrier, Rich
Ad is somewhat concerned that
his customers might be upset
because they get their Leaders
a little late on Thursdays.
“I try to rush home right
after practice to deliver my
papers and hope the readers un
derstand” said Richard.
We might add that actually
he has no cause for concern. In
all the years that Richard has
been delivering our paper
complaints have been few, if
any.
The son of Mr. and Mrs.
Julius Vago of 14213 Orinoco,
he is active in church activities
at St. James.
His Leader route together
with several other odd jobs has
helped swell his “college kitty”.
Getting back to football, a
situation eame up that could
have been more serious than it
turned out. While Richard is
strictly for the Cardinals, some
goot natured kidding developed
in the Vago household.
Mr. Vago is a former Parma
athlete.
The Redmen managed to win
last Friday but Richard quick
ly noted “we’ll get them next
year”.
And he probably ean help the
cause having one more year of
eligibility with the Cardinals.
Thanks to Richard and all of
the Leader carriers for your
fine cooperation in seeing to it
that our paper is delivered to
every home in East Cleveland
every Thursday.

City Loses
Zone Case
To Appeal
In a 21-page opinion handed
down Wednesday, October 8th
by the District Appelate Court,
the city was the loser in an ef
fort to maintain an apartment
status on the rear of the Wal
worth property, Euelid ave.,
west of Wymore ave. The court
held there was abuse of dis
cretion in the city’s zoning
ordinance.
City Manager Chas. A.
Carran immediately announced
the city will carry the case to
the Ohio State Supreme Court.
The case grew out of denial
by the Zoning Board of Appeals
to a request of the Killeen
Realty Co. to rezone the rear
of the area to retail use. The
Euclid ave frontage is zoned
for retail. Purpose of the re
quest was to permit the erec
tion of a supermarket with ade
quate parking, on the site.
Among the objections listed
by the city was the problem of
increased traffic in a main
thoroughfare already too heav
ily traveled and the large num
ber of unoccupied business
facilities in the city and the
fact that the neighborhood is
a neighborhood of apartments.

Observes 40th Anniversary
Faith Lutheran Congregation
Forty years ago Hayden
Square was considered the out
skirts of Cleveland. Into this
neighborhood came a small
group of Lutherans who were
eager to have a church in this
area.
From this small group that
had met in the old Atlas
Theater under guidance of
Grace Church, came the first
parishioners of Faith Evangeli
cal Lutheran Church, U.A.C. of
Hayden ave. and Glenside rd.
On Sunday, October 5th, this
congregation will observe its
fortieth anniversary.
Eleven men from the neigh
borhood met on October 9th,
1918 and organized the church.
But before this, the ladies, with
an. eye to the future and their
part in it, had already formed
the Ladies Aid Society. An ac
tive Suncay School was also
functioning.
Two lots on the northeast
corner of East 138th st. (now

were bought for $5,202. On this
spot on August 15th, 1920, the

of God.

Serial Number
Link Recovers
Stolen Horn
“Th® serial number did it**
commented Captain Patrick
O’Malley of the East Cleveland
Police Department Detective
Bureau, Tuesday, in reporting
the recovery of a trumpet and
a clarinet stolen here December
19th, 1957 from the Hayden
Music Co., 1628 Hayden ave.
The trumpet turned up Mon
day in a pawn shop at 9603
Cedar ave. It had been brought
in by a tavern keeper, who when
questioned, said he had pur
chased the instrument and a
clarinet from an unidentified
customer in December. He still
had the clarinet.
Through a system by which
pawned items carrying serial
numbers are checked against
serial numbered stolen items,
police are able to recover much
stolen loot. Because of this.
Captain O’Malley emphasizes
the importance of keeping a list
of all items having serial
numbers.
The clarinet was returned to
the music store by Captain
O’Malley. The company will
pick up the trumpet at the pawn
shop.
