Event Here

Mayor Carl Becker, in inaug-
urating the fifth annual Putin
Bay Day last Friday declared the

for two principal reasons, one be-
ing that Port Clintonites are Civ
en- an opportunity to renew ac
quaintance with their good
friends of the Island, who were
hemmed in by an exceeding ardu-
Gus winter this year. Then again
he added, "The day gives our
visitors an opportunity to make
unusual purchases here not to be
found in their home community" :"
He recalled that Mayor Fox,
several years ago "arose from his
sick bed to accompany his people
to Port Clinton for the great fes.
; tival of friendship established
between the two communities.
He concluded his observations
by pointing out that Put-in-Bay
Day actually starts the tourist
season, when thousands will visit
our fair city throughout the sum-
mer and fall months"
The festivities started shortly
after 2 o'clock Friday afternool
with a parade following corona
ton of the Grape Queen, Audrey
Klop and her attendants. Cle'

CITY REJECT S
Pc Tito N 7 0
vACATE ALLEY

Voting five to one, city coun-
Gil Tuesday night rejected the pc
tition of Rev. Karl Brand for va
eating, by the city, of an alley
from Madison and Monroe at
Fourth Streets.
Acting on advice of the city
solicitor, John Reinheimer, the
city body first unanimously voted
in favor of the proposition that
the city has no authority to va
cate streets or alleys, without
first taking recourse in the courts.
City Clerk WiYiam Zeis was
directed to advise Rev. Brand and
his parish that in order to have
the alley in question vacated for
use by expanded school facilities,
it will be necessary to file a pc
tition to that effect in common
pleas court.
A petition signed by 36 resi-
dents of the vicinity was filed with
council protesting the vacating
move on grounds it would lessen
the value of property and hamper
fire and police protection in the
event the alley was closed against
ingreSS or egreSS.
Council approved purchase Of
child'S merry-go-round for the
city park and six swing seats at
a cost of $176.

Couple Given Prison
Terms For Child Neglect

Child neglect charges brought
by the state against Richard Dub
bert and his wife, Eta, resulted
in both receiving indeterminate
sentences of from one to three
years in Common Pleas Court
late Tuesday afternoon.
Charges of gross neglect of
their six children, all under nine
years of age, were heard by Judge
Tom D. Stahl.
The couple was indicted early
this month, and upon their ar
raignment last week, both plead
ed guilty. A number of witness
es were heard in the case which
was tried without a jury.
Dubbert will serve his term
in Ohio State penitentiary, while
his wife will be sent to Marys-
Vile, Ohio.
Attorney James Thierry was
appointed by the court to defend
the Dubberts, who were prosecut-
ed by Myron Rosentreter, repre-
senting the state.
The state developed evidence
that the younger children were
frequently taken to tavernS by
their parents, and were improp-
erlv fed or cared for.
The Ottawa County Welfare
Department will care for the six
state charges, who range from
one to eight years in age, while
their parents are incarcerated.

134 Erie Gardens Tenants Ask For
Annexation, City Tables Petition A Week

A second attempt to gain re-
cognition of Erie Gardens as a
municipal entity failed before
city council Tuesday night, after
Mayor Carl Becker read a peti-
ton signed by 134 residents of
the federally owned housing pro
ject.
Becker told councilmen 'We
are losing any benefits which
might acrue from those living
just beyond the city limits, al
though we are giving them gar
bage, police and fire service.
Councilman Harold Nielsen
pointed out that the government
pays Bay Township an annual
fee in lieu of taxes. City treas
urer George Tewers said he un-
derstood the amount to be $700,
which is not cleared through the
, county auditors office but is
paid directly into the township
fund.
Other officials said they were
uncertain about the amount paid
for taxes from Erie Garden and
urged an investigation of this as.
pect.
Petition Tabled
The petition was finally tabled
for one week, to permit council
men to study the issue farther in
regard to possible monetary
value to the city.
Two weeks ago, by deadlock
ed vote of two against two, coun-
Gil refused the request of one half
of Erie Gardens tenants to be
taken into the city.
Tuesdays petition was pre-.
sented by Jim Squires, director OF
the federal owned project, signed
by 1875 tenants, representing 4s
percent of the population of the
Gardens, urging council to vote
favorably on annexation.
The petition, which was circu
lated only Tuesday afternoon, de
clared:
"We, the signers of this docu
ment, tenants of the portion o.
our community known as Erie
Gardens, wish to hereby reques
your favorable vote, at this time
to the proposition of inclusion
within the limits of the city O.
