Community Council
Parson Panel Looks
To Citys Tomorrow

Mr.. Hochwald, president Of the
East Cleveland Ministerial Asso-
citation and chairman of the panel,
had this to say concerning the
meeting. "These clergymen are an
xious to demonstrate their concern
for the future development Of the
City of East Cleveland. We are
determined to use every bit of in
fluence we have in order to see
that our city continues to be good
place in which to live. We believe
that this is a matter which cuts
across all religious affiliations and
becomes the common concern of
every minded person."
Preventing through wise plan
ming, what has happened in other
areas of Greater Cleveland is a
much saner procedure than having
to go through the long process of
rehabilitation which now confronts
deteriorating communities. The
Hough Area Council has already
demonstrated the truth of this
conviction. eff we can unite to
correct bad conditions, we GER
tainly can unite to prevent their
occurrance," Rev. Hochwald stated.
The discussion will begin at 8
p. m. and the public is invited to
attend.

December Fire
Loss Is Low

East Cleveland got safely
through another Christmas holiday
season without fire, reports Fire
Chief Fred Lange as he points
with pride to the December record
of 45 department calls against the
60 in November. Of the 45 calls
13 were fires. The November 60
included % fires.
The Number One cause of fires
continues to be cigarettes, says
Chief Lange, the Number Two
cause in December was faulty wir-
ing. Both causes are within the
power of the people to reduce.
The 13 December fires cost
$1,365 in property loss. The %
November fires aggregated a $3,035
property loss. Seven December
fires were in homes against six
dwelling fires in November.
The balance of the calls for
each month were emergencies,
such as the need for the resisitator,
etc.
Chief Lange urges every citizen
to continually be on the alert to
prevent fires which may mean not
only loss of property but loss of
life.
He also points out that 1t is
cheaper to have an expert electri-
clan check wiring than to have
a fire.

contribute its banking usefulness.
Since its establishment so years

Trust has always been a friend.
''To the big and little saver, it
has offered the fullest financial
assistance tempered only by the

Reliable advice and trust serv-

Teenager Is
Series Topic
Kirk PTA

The program committee Of Kirk
P.-T.A. feels that mere entertain
ment should be left to other media
when the matter of teen-age prob
lens presents itself-and when
doesn't it!
So beginning in January and ex-
tending through April, series of
four meetings has been planned to
interpret the junior high student
in terms of his normal development
and point up the accompany prob
lens during this period.
The series opens on Wednesday,
January 14th, with a discussion of
personality growth or "How They
Got That Way" by DR.. William
Adams of Western Reserve Medical
School. What are some of the
factors leading up to adolescent
behavior? Why does junior
possess a halo one moment and
horns the next? Why does parental
influence and control seem to slip
a notch at this particular period? ?
DR.. Adams will interpret these
and other queries.
On Wednesday, February 11th,
the annual joint meeting with
Shaw PTA takes place at Kirk
this year. For this special occasion
twin bill will be presented. Miss
Sibyl Leach of Family Service As
sociation and Mr.. E. Dana Brooks,
Director of the Department of
Domestic Relations, Guy h o g a
Court of Common Pleas, will dis
cuss family problems as they
affect the teen-ager. More about
this next month.
Again on March 18th another
chapter in adolescent life will be
dealt with by Louie L. Myers, Kirk
principal. He discusses the influence
of school Sn the junior student; the
topic "Are Sharps and Flats
People?" April 18th brings the
series to close when DR.. Peter
Hamptoa of Cleveland College
sums It up with the subject as
Your Family Team Winner :"
This final program will have to do
with making democracy work in
the family. Each session closes
with a coffee hour when all hands
gather informally to compare notes
on a most important undertaking,
getting John and Mary success
fully through that troublesome
and difficult period known as
adolescence.
