East Cleveland's fifth free chest
X-ray campaign will get underway
May 31st, the schedule of the place
and the time Of the mobile unit at
four different centers in town to be

East Cleveland records show that
the city is beginning to win in its
fight against tuberculosis, joining
with that battle being fought
across the nation. Last year East
Cleveland recorded 40 new cases
of tuberculosis and IL persons in
the city died of the disease. dag
nosed cases of tuberculosis who
died from other causes was eight.
During the year eight East
Clevelanders were sent to Sunny
Acres and eight to Lowman Pa
Wilton for treatment. As of Decem-
ber 29th, there were 224 local
patients.
Because tuberculosis is disease
which creeps up on a patient with
out his knowledge, it is highly i'm
portant to have regular chest x
rays taken. Of the 40 new cases
here last year 28 were discovered
through the free chest X-ray pro-
gram.

May 18th. The directive prohibits
construction of any nature requir-
ing more than 25 tons of steel.
Much more steel than that amount
must go into the proposed one
story gymnasium.
However, and upon this, the
school board is pinning its hopes
NPA will consider individual cases,
dependent on the stage of progress
and the need. So, since early Tues
day morning the members of the
board and r. B. DelaMotte of the
firm of Fulton, Krinsky and Della
Motto, architects, have been gath
ering together the required infor-
nation. The furnished form carry
ing all this information may even
now be on it's way to the U. S.
Department of Commerce in Wash
ington, under which NPA func-
tions.
Studying theNnewest building
regulation, and making notes as
they did 50, the board of education
feels it has many points in its
favor, and upon these they base
their hope to still let the bids
within the 30-day limit fixed by
law for such procedure. The bids
we're opkaed May 10th, just on
day before the new NPA rul;r..
went into effect.
For instance: Plans were under
way long ago, architects were
hired, a bond issue was approved by

annual promotions are the best
thinking of educators today" stated
DR.. Korb who pointed out the many
small classes which always come
with mid-year promotion, and the
resultant cost of teachers for the
small groups. He also stated that
in the case of beginning pupils, it
has been found that children enter
ing school in January have, follow
ing the summer vacation, forgotten
most of what they were taught
during the semester and must learn
much of it over wnen they return
to school in the fall.
