With trips to Brazil and membership on the
United States Pan American Olympic team as a spec
ial incentive, four of the best women divers in the
United States are in East Cleveland for the national
chapionships starting tomorrow at Shaw High Pool.
First arrival was Patsy Wil
lard, the defending one-meter
champion. She flew in last
Fariday evening from Phoenix,
Arizona, where she trains with
the Dick Smith Swim Gym, and
began work outs on the Shaw
boards last Saturday morning.
Renewal of her rivalry with
Joeldina Lenzi O’Connell in
both the one-meter and three
meter competition is expected
to be one of the highlights of
the meet.
Patsy wrested the one-meter
indoor crown from Joeldina at
Sacramento last April and was
runner up in the three-meter
competition.

the hearing on rezoning some
five parcels of land on Auburn
dale ave., to permit Hough
Bakery to extend its facilities.
Hough plans a $200,000 ad
dition to its shipping area on
the site which is neear Lake

Some 35 persons attended
the meeting and heard an at
torney representing a group
opposed to the rezoning ask
for the continuance. The law
yer wanted a 30-day delay but
the commissioners on the ad
vice of their law director,
Stanley Webster, decided to
just continue the hearing until
the next regular meeting Tues
day, April 9th.
In regular business, the com
missioners awarded a bid to
American LaFrance for a new
$23,700 fire engine. Schloss
Paving was given a contract
to do some $44,000 worth of
paving and surface treating to
streets in the city.
In an unusual move, a rep
resentative of Mack Trucks
was allowed to argue the case
or the purchase of the firr
engine from his company.
However, the commissioners
decided to go on the recom
mendation of Fire Chief Fred
Lange who asserted he fav

equipment.
The point also was brought
up that the Mack bid did not
meet specifications and in or

new specifications would have
to be drawn up.
Also, the Commissioners ap
proved the purchase of a new
