The reputation of the East Cleve-
landers in this sport is more wide

East CIeveIanders
Take BakingHonors

The new gas stove in the kitchen
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. John
O'Neil, 1882 South Tylor rd., is
the reward for the prize winning
butter cake which Mrs. O'Neil en-
tered in the News Homebakers'
Contest last Friday. Her husband
deserves some of the credit. He
took the cocoanut iced delicacy to
the show while his wife, Alice, was
on her job at the Ann Fisher
Beauty Salon, 2108 South Tay-
lor I'd.
Another East Clevelander to win
in the contest is Mrs. Marilyn Rut-
ter of 1867 Auburndale ave. AS a
near-deadline entry, her child's
birthday cake won a first place.
A white cake, cut to the shape of
a child's shoe, with red ribbon laces
dotted with red candies as eyelets,
brought her a Norge gas range.

AS a spectator sport, basketball
in Shaw Highs new gymnasium
this winter will not only be inter-
esting and exciting-East Cleve-
landers have been used to that for
years, watching the scrappy teams
of veteran former coach Roy Wise
cup-it will be comfortable, too.
The new gym on Shaw ave. is
large, brilliantly lighted, and warm.
Game action is fast and extensive,
partly because of the tempo of the
game itself, and partly because
the boys have more room to ma
neuver than they had in the
cramped "cigar box" across the
street.
If previous history is an indica-
ton, there will be victories for

List New Traffic
Signals Bus Stops
Effective Friday

Beginning at 1000 o'clock to-
morrow morning - Friday, Nov
ember 18th - a new system of bus
stops will become effective east of
Windermere on both Euclid ave.
and Hayden ave. routes.
The changes, announces Chief of
Police H. S. Weaver, are being
made by the Traffic Committee
with view of better and safer
service to East Clevelanders. Under
the new plan CTS riders will have
to walk but few steps to traffic
signal protected street crossing,
after stepping off their bus.
The new policy of the Traffic
Committee, states Mr.. Weaver, is
to eliminate the old "stagger" plan

Shaw S Share In lei
Tie Depends On Victory
Over Lakewood Friday

Shaw gridders would put half of
the Lake Erie League in the hon.
ored circle. In other words, Shaw,
Lakewood and Cleveland Heights
(if they beat Parma!!) would tie
for top honors. Parma, Shaker and
Euclid would follow.
No shaw team has ever been
able to cop sole possession of the
LEI top rung. However several
Cardinal teams have shared the
glory with the last such occasion
back in 1910.
Due to put forth extra effort
will be twenty-five seniors who
will don their grid togs for the
last time (and no doubt seriously
weaken the 1866 eleven) and fit
ting farewell would be a victory
over Lakewood.
Since many of the local follow
ers would just as soon forget
about the second straight defeat
suffered last Friday-we won't go
into detail. However we might
add that the Cardinals muffed sew
eral golden opportunities in the
first half with the muddy playing
conditions and inspired TiIers Eat
fault"
Any hopes of victory that Coach
Bob McGraw may have rest en-
tirely on the shoulders of the men
who helped ring up six straight de-
cisions before stumbling two weeks
ago in Lima.
Speedsters Jay Hunton and Tony
Zampino can be troublesome
against Lakewood if the stadium
turf is solid. Bill Baton showed
that he can sling 'em when they
are wet and he'll have plenty of
targets to shoot at Friday. Jim
Rogers should lend a yard or more
per try from his full back slot
while you can't help but commend
the marvellous play of the sturdy
forward wall composed of Nick
Bucceri, Phil Ella, Jack Hennen,
Tom Freitag, Henry Fischer, Jim
Leach and Jack Rowan.
Although the seating capacity at
the Stadium is limited, there is
plenty of standing room available.
True-blood Cardinal fans shouldn't
mind the roofing from a standing
position since the sideline support
can help Shaw corral the Rangers.
Let's go Shaw-BEAT LAKE
WOOD!!!

Discontinuance
Ordered By
zoning Board

At its meeting Thursday, No
vember 4th, the Zoning Board of
Appeals sustained the order of the
City Engineer, Malcolm S.
Douglas, which held the Euclid
Rest Haven Inc, 13240 Euclid ave.
to be in violation by using the
property as an institution for
alcoholics. The board gave until
Feb. 1st to discontinue that use at
that address. The property was for
merly occupied by Forest Hills
Hospitals, now located at Five
Points.
A goodly number of witnesses,
all neighbors were heard, some in
dicationg there had been no an
noyances, and others testifying
that there had been anoyances.
1t. Patrick O'Maley of the city's
Detective Bureau read some 27
complaints from neighbors and
hospital authorities received by
police during the year.
AS the board took action, it also
made it clear that it does not
underestimate the service of such
an institution, but feels the loca-
| ton, in a congested area, is not
appropriate for it.
Approved were:
Transfer of a rooming house IL
cense at 1922 Forest Hills ave. to
the new owner of that property.
Request to convert large suite
at 1900 Superior rd. into two
smaller suites, according to code
requirements.
Request to rent third floor at
1912 East 134th st. The building,
it was reported, meets all require
ments for third floor occupancy.
Rejected:
Appeal of Shaw ave. Church of
Christ to conduct Sunday School
classes in a former warehouse at
13205 Shaw ave. The building,
the board was informed, fails to
meet state requirements for school
buildings.
Following its policy to permit
no new rooming houses on side
streets, the appeal to have four
roomers at 1859 Alvason rd., was
refused. Under this policy, adopted
some time ago, the city permits
transfer of rooming house license
to a new owner, refuses "a rooming
house license to a property no
longer a rooming house, and refuses
new requests for rooming house
permits on streets other than main
thoroughfares.

day evening accepted bids for the
new controllers, traffic signals and
required cable to the total of about
$4,000. Included in this bidding
were a light proposed for Shaw

After listening to the panel on

1t was good to hear visiting
