complete preliminary organization
al blueprints for the March cam
paign, set for the first 16 days
of the month.

Smaller areas and more area
chairmen is the by-word of this
years Red Cross Fund set-up, as
outlined by Mr.. Schloss at the
meeting. Wherever possible the
area leaders have been assigned to
territories within their own imme-
diate neighborhoods. Approximate
ly seventy-five street captains have
already consented to serve in the
drive, according to latest reports
from co-chairman, Mrs. Fleming.
Overall picture of the county
wide campaign, with its goal in
excess of one million dollars, of
which East Cleveland and it's goal
of $13,948.OO is an integral part,
was briefed at the meeting by
Mrs. Esther Dolan, head of the
Greater Cleveland Red Cross sub
urban drive.
Mrs. Dolan stressed the various
ALLEGATIONS of the Red Cross Fund
monies, including the stepping-up
of the overseas military allotment
and the currently increasing i'm
portance of the Red Cross defense
blood program to supply gamma
globulin for the fight against polio.

tween November 25th, 1852 and
January 1st, 1859 East Cleveland
is striving to break that 1852
record, states Chief of Police H. S.
Weaver. The 36 days, up to noon
yesterday, are deathless days.
The city is now installing con-
trollers which will make it possible
to operate all traffic signals along
Euclid ave. from a central control
in police headquarters, City Hall.
The system will be set up as to
signal a four-way red, thus halt
ing all traffic during the interim,
explains Chief Weaver. The plan
will not only provide a clear lane
for emergency fire or police We
hicles, but will safeguard all traf-
fic that might otherwise be enter
ing Euclid ave. from side streets
at this particular time.
Records of the Safety Division Of
the East Cleveland Police Depart
ment show a Is percent reduction
in accidents in 1852 over 1851.
There were 1909 accidents against
the 1851 total of 1913. In 1852 191
persons were injured in such ac-
cidents against 217 in 1851. There
were two fatals, in 1851 there
were three.
Night accidents were reduced by
26 percent and daytime accidents
by 6 per cent.
The National accident record for
1862 was IS percent and by the
same schedule East Cleveland
totaled a 615, topping the national
figure.
The city's growth in accident
prevention is credited to the work
of the Safety Division headed by
1t. Charles Vyse and Sgt. Patrick
O'Malley, backed by strict observ-
ance of all officers and a strict
municipal court with Judge STAN
ton Adams on the bench.
In the traffic bureau, as in other
department divisions, each officer
is given special training. There is
rigid law enforcement in high ac-
cident areas, and a continuous
safety education program.

What can one city do in one
evening to battle polio? East
Cleveland answered the question
Thursday, January 29th when
Marching Mothers, helping fathers
and brothers and sons, and a gen.
erous city poured $19,577.73 in
to its polio cup, full and running
over.
Stanton Adams, chairman, and
Mrs. Alcwyn Isaacs, co-chairman,
were breathless as the sum started
passing last years $4,000 mark.
Up and up went the totals as cap
tain after captain reported in.
In addition to the porch light
campaign itself, the fund bene-
fitted from $50 given by movie
audiences after George Dion, a
Chambers faculty member just re-
covering from polio, and Chairman
Adams spoke briefly to them.
Shaw High School checked S1S2
out of its All Charities Drive Fund.
The Vacuum Cleaner plant of GE
on Ivanhoe rd. added $500. Checks
came in also from Accurate Parts,

In every fund drive there are
incidents revealing the hearts will
ing and eager to help. Many such
little stories trickled in from the
one hour Mothers March.
"My porch light blinked out and
l was afraid you would pass mo
by" said an older gentleman az
he met his neighborhood volunteer
out on the sidewalk. The fellow
doesn't always hear someone at the
door. He lives alone. So he took up
his watch outside, patiently wait
ing for a Mother to pick up the
contribution he and a few friends
had all ready.
At a Euclid ave. Tourist home,
two young women, all smiles, greet
ed the volunteer with eve have

hoping you would notice our light
over the door and know it was not
just light at a tourist home to-
night"
A reading lamp pushed right up
against the window pane signalled
another volunteer -. so she rang
the bell. Quickly the door opened
and a woman handed out her en-
velope. "Our porch light burned
out just when we needed it most"
she explained, $50 we rugged up
the reading light hoping you would
notice it and STOP.
"No one knows better than / do
what it means to be incapacitated"
commented a wheelchair donor. He
explained that while he was the
victim of an automobile accident,
he still wanted to help those af-
flicted with polio.

LINDA PECK HONOR
GUEST At PARTIES

The year 1853 will long be
remembered with pleasure by
Linda Lee Peck, of Sedalia, for it
was in May of this year that she
graduated from Midway High
School and was honored at a
series of parties by her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Leroy Peck.
The parties started last Friday
night when 80 of Lindas class
mates were invited to her home
for a lawn party. The spacious
yard was hung with lighted Jap
anese lanterns. For entertainment
there was dancing, games and
television programs. When re-
freShments were served each
guest was served cake bearing
their own name and 1859.
On Sunday evening, preceding
baccalaureate, the Pecks invited
the members of the Midway
School faculty to be their guests
at dinner. These twenty-four
guests were seated at small
tables, each having a centerpiece
of white pompom chrysanthe-
NUNS with individual white cam
die, the entire ornamentation gilt
tering with its busting of silver.
