Ice Rink
Will Open
Thursday
“There will be ice.”
This is the welcome news
from J. S. Barnes, superintend
ent of the city’s Water Depart
ment. The anxiously awaited 40
degree temperature and cloudy
weather of the weekend, plus
some on Monday, enabled the
department to get the first one
and a half inch ice layer by late
Monday.
The weather forecast for
Tuesday and Wednesday was
hopeful, added Mr. Barnes. “If
it continues” he said, “we will
be able to get the needed one
and a half inch second layer
.. then we’ll be safe.”
With this assurance, and with
hundreds of fingers crossed,
Thanksgiving will see the open
ing of the long awaited rink in
Ice Rink Park on Shaw ave.,
just north of the Nickel
Railroad.
If anybody is going to be
happy about the city’s artificial
fee rink, it is the city officials.
Over the years they have
struggled with a real skating
problem on the lake in Forest
Hill Park. Invariably, there
just wasn’t any ice.
With an unusually long, cold
winter predicted in 1947, the
city did a lot of work at the
lake, including the opening of a
concession stand. There were
only 35 skating days. It was
five years later and one-half
day of skating.
Now, with this sparkling new
artificial rink and normal
winter weather, the skating
sign can reasonably be ex
pected to be up every day.
Probably one of the most
popular Christmas gifts this
year will be a pair of skates.

City All
Ready For
Snow, ke
While others have basked in
the above normal November
temperatures, the city’s Service
Department has lined up its
eight snow plows, four salt
spreaders and three front
loaders. They are ready to go
on a moment’s notice. A sudden
shift in weather isn’t going to
find them unprepared to battle
ice and snow.
We keep in constant touch
with the weather department”
states Street Superintendent
Joseph V. Henry. From these
reports we know when to be
ready and off. In addition to
this information from the
weather station, cruising patrol
men radio us immediately upon
noticing icy streets. Peculiar
weather combinations can quick
ly mean ice.
The salt trucks are the first
to respond. The city begins the
season with 250 tons of salt on
hand. Contracts mean a con
tinuing filling up of the re
serve bins. The city has nine
salt boxes for use of police and
motorists, on the hills not serv
ices by CTS lines. CTS main
tains its own salt boxes on the
streets along which it operates
buses.
Mr. Henry is especially
pleased with the new front
loader. He says a snow bank
vanished before it. It can scoop
up three cubic yards of snow in
one load.
Purchase of this heavy piece
of equipment is expected to
save the city money. Renting
such loaders is extremely ex
pensive, and they cannot always
be had as promptly as needed.
Snow plows go to work when
the snow fall hits the two inch
mark.
The Service Department has
two snow-fighting crews on 12
hour shifts. They also have a
system under which certain
smaller crews are on 24-hour
call at all seasons of the year.
Battling snow and ice has
cost the city $17,354.37 so far
this year (since January 1,
1958). In 1957 the city spent
$24,986.85, which was higher
than the average. The city had
to hire extra equipment that
year to keep transportation
lanes open.
When asked “What about the
bus stops” Mr. Henry said they
will try to keep a path, at least,
as a matter of convenience to
riders, as well as a safety
measure.

a long, hard and bitter one, covering some nine years

Refugee Has Thankful Heart
Bn LeRoy Thomas
When Ohio University
opened its doors this fall for
the start of another school
year, the roads taken by its
7,300 students to the campus
were relatively short ones.
Not so for sophomore Algis
Giedraitis, a 33-year-old Lithu
anian immigrant now living in
Euclid. For “Al” the road to
Ohio University has been filled
with the hardships and bitter
ness of Russian brutality, sol
diering in Adolf Hitler’s army,
and weary years in prisoner of
war and refugeq camps. His
wanderings took him through
11 countries, stretching from
Denmark to Yugoslavia and
from Czechoslovakia to the
United States.
Today, Al sits in his comfort
able Washington Hall dormi
tory room with slide rule and
drawing board preparing for
his courses in mechanical en
gineering. If coaxed, he could
tell the,story of a life already
filled with enough sorrow, dis
appointment, danger and ex
citement to last a lifetime. It’s
a life he’d like to forget.
Born in Taurage, Lithuania,
Al began the long road to
America and OU when the
Russians invaded and occupied
his country in 1940. Al was a
high school studet of 15 at the
time. His father, a forestry
manager, was arrested sudden

three days. Released sick and

Fleeing the Russians for
Germany with his family one
year later, Al continued his
high school studies until draft
ed into the German army in
1943. What was it like in Hit
ler’s army? “It was rough and
tough, but I did my job like
any other soldier. Under the
Nazi regime no one complained
—you kept your mouthh
or else,” explains Al.
With the German surrender
in May, 1945, Al and the rest
of his company were marched
by the Communists some 400
miles through Yugoslavia,
across the Alps and into Aus
tria. There the British interned
him and 50,000 others in a
POW camp. Life in the camp
was “nothing

family then spent the next
three years in a German refu

his high school education.
Lacking textbooks, he says, the
students made their own from
