Refer Three Juveniles
To Court In Five False
Alarms Since August 5

Since August 9Th, when the Wei
fare Department of East Cleve-
land adopted the policy of turn
ing over to the Juvenile Court all
juveniles picked up in connection
with false fire alarms, five chill
dren have been listed with the
Court in three separate false
alarms, announces Miss Genevieve
Quinn, Welfare Director. The
herring will come up within the
next few days.
Miss Quinn is urging all parents
Of young children to explain to
them the service which a fire
alarm box is designed to give the
community in saving life and pro-
perty in event Of a fire; and to
impress o nthe youthful young
minds the hazards Of using the
box except in case of a fire.
1t is pointed out that not only
does it take time and money to
answer a false alarm, and to
search for and find culprits who
turn them in but that the false
alarm may find fire trucks out on
needless runs should a real fire
call comes in. Lives may be lost
and property damaged within the
minutes lost in getting to the real
fire. Fred A. Steffens, chief Of
the Fire Department, who is CO.
operating with the police and well
fare departments in an effort to
clear up this situation is co-operat-
ing in the campaign.

4>710 Pupils
Register On


Enrolment in the city's public
schools for the second day of the
fall term was 4,710, according to
figures compiled in the office of
the superintendent, DR.. o. J. Korb.
A much higher figure is antici-
pated week hence, since the pat
tern reveals that many children,
for one reason or another, do not
.reportsin the first few days.
In a breakdown this enrolment
shows 308 beginners in the kinder
garten classes, plus 145 second
term kindergarten. Grades one
to six have 2,406 pupils registered
There are 991 signed up at Kirk
Jr. High School and $50 in Shaw
High School.
All teachers reported promptly
for their classes and DR.. Korb re-
ports a smooth sailing first day
for the 1950-51 school year.

his tosses. However, he has shown
lots Of improvement over last year
and might fill the bill with two
or three games under his belt.
Mike Vara, who has been work.
ing at the right half spot, will
probably do the punting but his
boots in practice sessions have
lacked distance.
Gil Sanford will undoubtedly get
the starting assignment at full
back with Jack Leuschel as the
No. 2 man at that position while
George Measor and Gene Pattie
are about on even terms in their
bid for the first team role at left
half.
The Cardinals will pack plenty
of "beef" at the tackle positions
with Ed Alemagno, Frank Lang
don, Jim Brown, George Schultz,
Bob Heidel tipping the scales at
100 lbs or better. The ends will
probably be the "Mutt and Jeff"
combination of lanky, 6 #. 3 in.
Tony Gilberto and the speedy,
slightly-built Bob Gibson who mea-
sures only ft. 10 in. The middle
of the line is the big question mark
in the Shaw forward wall since
there are no experienced perform
ers available at guard or center.
At present Dan Ferenson, and Bob
Kennedy, a pair of converted
tackles, and Jack Barrey, a for
mer end, are learning the guard
assignments while George Andres
ky, a junior, is competing with
Tony Giordano, a refomred full
back, for the center slot.

There will be a Country Store,
in which wide and unimaginable
variety of items will be for sale.
Mrs. George Rebel will preside
behind the counter.
The Fair will be all over the
place, both inside the house and
outside on the grounds. Now is a
good time to mention that the
"show will go on" regardless of
the WITNESSES of nature. 1t will be
held rain or shine; in case of rain
of course, being moved inside.
There will be dancing outdoors,
supervised by Mrs. ]. C. Becker;
while for those who do not care
to dance, there will be movies in
doors, and, of course, the Indians
on television for any who care to
watch.

stand to serve you.
For a light snack as one wand

undertaken to make all the pop
corn himself in the Y's newly-re-
decorated kitchen. Mrs. George

apples, at home, of course; while
Mrs. George Reazer, Jr., club
president, and her hubby will have

Weaver Issues Call
For School Guards

Chief of Police H. S. Weaver is
sending out a call for school
guards. Men on pension who would
like to serve during the morning,
noon and after school hours in
keeping crossings safe for the
school children, are asked to apply
either at the office of Chief of Po-
lice Weaver, or the office of A. M.
Heavilin, both in City Hall.

Chief of Weaver further recon-
mends that the proposed parking
lot be divided into two sections.
The near-the- street area would
be reserved for two hour park
ing. This would accommodate motor
lists shopping in the area, or eat
ing at one of the neighborhood
restaurants. The south end of the
lot would be reserved for 24-hour
parking. This would solve parking
for residents of the neighborhood
who cannot find garages. The cost
would be ten cents every "a hours.
Parking meters, states Chief
Weaver, average $40 month in
come.
In the event the bids are accept
able, the city would let the hard
surfacing contract and supervise
the job through it's engineering de-
partment. In turn the Dual Park
ing Meter Co. will meet the cost
and then collect from the city on
the monthly rs per cent meter in
come.
When Commissioner Richard
Horan asked what effect this would
have on parking for American
legion members who have a Post
Home to the rear of Hawley Park,
Chief Weaver said it would not
interfere with the Legion's own
post meetings, since there would
be ample space near the Home
for their own member parking.
Just when the lot will be
ready is question none could an
swer. This will depend on the bids
received, and the time element in

Civil Service | LEAGUE
Head Hits Veteran
Preference in Jobs

The present veterans prefer

against the public interest"
James r. Watson, executive direc-
tor of the National Civil Service
League, declared last night.
Mr.. Watson, who spoke at
meeting of the District Chapter
OF the international Association
OF Public Employment Services,
said, his group is "basically" op-
posed to the practice of veterans
preference in public employment.
Exam Advantage Unprotected.
Mr.. Watson added, however,
that the league, las a practical
matter" has no serious objection
to veterans receiving S and 10
points preference when they are
taking exams for Federal jobs.
But he added that the league is
"unalterably opposed" to veterans
receiving preference in Govern
ment observation-disclosures programs.
1--WE have all seen cases where
non-veteran career employees with
many years of service have lost
their jobs, while veterans with far
fewer years of service have been
kept on" Mr.. Watson declared.
The leagues executive director
also urged "go slow" policy on
the Hoover Commissions proposal
to decentralize civil service per-
sonnel matters to the individual
Government departments and
agencies.
Gradual Change Urged.
Generally. we favor the theory
of decentralization. but it must
be done over a period of years."

Mr.. Watson also explained the

 IN FINALS AT

OMAHA, June 22-tR-Texas ana Rutgers, who got things started ill the NCAA baseball tourney just a week ago, met again tonight and this time the chips are down.
 The winner will play Washington State tomorrow night for the cham pionship.
 In the first meeting Rutgers took a close one to 3. But sports writers still like Texas in tonight's game. They tab the Longhorns, defending champions, as consistently the strongest team in the tournament.
 They point out that all Rutgers runs were unearned, and that Her man Herring, who held Texas to three hits, won't be ready for an- other appearance on the mound.
 Herring pitched last night as Rut- gers walloped Wisconsin 16 to 2.
 Last nights games and tonight's have been loosely referred to as 'semi-finals." However, the way the double elimination tourney has worked out, Rutgers is playing in both games while Washington, idle last night and tonight. already has a berth in the finals.

SEA I TILE L0SES TO
 PORTLAND

Examine the Pacific Coast League standings today and you find that this weeks activities so far have ac- complished a distinct separation be- tween the first and second division.
 There's Hollywood, atop the lad der by six games, after saying it with home runs to beat San Fran cisco 7-5 last night. Oakland lost to Los Angeles, 8-2, but stays in sec- ond place. San Diego beat last place Sacramento, 8-2, to hold third place, nine games back.
 Portland'S 5-4 win over Seattle, along with San Francisco's loss, boosted the Beavers into fourth place. II games off the pace and one ahead of the Seals. The Los Angeles win,' and Seattle loss, broke a tie for sixth place, leaving the Angels a game in front of the RainierS.
 The momentary orderly process sion down the league scale may not last out the week, but with mid season approaching it might indi- cate the state of things to come in the second half of the long haul.
