People who depend on public
transportation to get them around
are not going to have to depend
on the new rapid transit alone for
quick service. If it will be more
convenient for them to ride a No.
80 Hayden ave-, or a No. 28 Eu-
cid express bus, that bus will be
there for them to ride.
In addition, there is going to
be an extension, as it were of the
rapid transit service east of the
Windermere station by virtue of a
superimposed bus service from
Windermere to East 222nd st. in
Euclid. This special express bus
will make but three stops enroute,
Noble rd., Green rd., Chardon rd.
Another unchanged bus line will
be No. 6, the local between Win
dermere and the Public Square.
Westbound riders may now trans
fer free of charge to the No. 6 at
Windermere or Superior, and east
bound No. 6 passengers may trans
fer to the No. 80 and No. % lines
at either of these points, since they
are local east of Superior.
In the present plans, stated Mr..
Hyde, there may not be an added
fare for the transfer to the super

Outlook For
Skating Not
Too Bright

1t may seem a little early to be
talking about ice skating, with the
November weather pattern copying
October, but the subject came up
at Tuesday nights City Commits
sion meeting when Mrs. Stuart
Cummins, chairman of the Recrea-
ton Committee of the East Cleve-
land Community Council asked
relative to plans for ice skating
this winter, and suggested flood
ing the baseball diamond at Shaw
Field.
In reply City Manager, Chas.
A. Carran said previous efforts to
provide skating on this field had
failed for several reasons, one of
which is the fact that the field
is drained for baseball playing.
Trys elsewhere had failed due
to the lack of sufficient cold
weather to freeze ice for skating.
Both Cleveland and Cleveland
Heights, said Carran, had gone to
considerable expense and effort,
several times with similar results.
Commissioner Paul Broer ex-
planned that it takes a prolonged
period of zero weather to form
ice, and to maintain it. 1t has been
years, since the lake in Forest
Hill Park has provided skating
recreation, although the lake level
has been lowered and other steps
taken to speed the freezing.
Skating, it seems, is entirely up
to the weatherman.

Muscular Dysfrophy
To
Be Collected
By Firemen

Muscular dystrophy, it is re-
membered, is the fatal, muscle
wasting disease for which as yet
no cure or preventive has been
discovered. The ailment weakens
one group of muscles after another
until total disability and death
follow. 1t afflicts more than
100000 victims in the United
States, including 10000 children.
The fire fighters November
March" will raise funds to support
increased research into this mys-
terious killer, to establish more
clinics nationwide, and to assist
the stricken in the purchase of
orthopedic equipment. The Cleve-
land center is located at Western
Reserve University. The cause and
the cure can be found only in de-
veloping laboratory and clinical
research by the top scientists in
this field.
Fire fighters of East Cleveland
will join with hundreds of thou
sands of their brothers all over
the United States and Canada dur
ing their off duty time in a Fire
Fighters March for Muscular
Dystrophy. East Cleveland has
been divided into two collection
areas. On Friday, November 26th
the fire fighters will collect from
all residents North of the Nickel
Plate Railroad and on Saturday,
November 9th from all residents
South of the Nickle Plate Railroad.
The time will be about 7 p. m.
each night.
This will be a porchlight cam
paign, so anyone interested in CIV
ing, please turn on your porch
light in the collection area for
that night.
Watch for your gift envelope to
come through the mails. Tuck in
your contribution, turn on the
porch light-be ready.

namics" procedure that during the
past year was used in analyZing
local recreational needs. The meet
ing was broken up into a number
of small circles for a discussion Of
three resolutions presented by the
recreational committee, headed by
DR.. John Culver, Professor of So
cial Science at Case Institute of
Technology. The three resolutions
concerned themselves with (D an
all-out program; (2) a modified
program listing "good will" vol
unteers, and (3) expansion of
present church, club, etc. programs.
Approximately 1870, preferred
the all-out program.
Attending the meeting were prin-
cipals of several East Cleveland
schools, members of the Board of
Education and three recreational
directors, Roy Wisecup, full-time
director of athletic recreation of
East Cleveland, Roy A. Clifford,

to many suburbs, or all Of them,
Mr.. Kaufman said their attention
now is centered in the sewer-water
problem. He emphasized the need
for strict building codes and zoning
for all communities, and commend
ed East Cleveland for its observ-
ance along these lines.
Answering What Rapid Transit
Means to East Cleveland, Mr..
Turk referred to the buolevard
along along Euclid ave. resulting
from removal of the car tracks,
and the improvement at Winder-
mere station. He referred to the
Rapid as the hub of a wheel whose
spokes would bring riders to the
Windermere Terminal. On the
question of parking, he replied 400
cars could be parked on the Doan
lot, and indicated there might be
a parking charge.
When asked if CTS is doing
any thinking yet for the riders
beyond the spokes who could not
use the rapid, he said mot yet"
Many smaller home improve
ments rather than a few major
ones are underway here, said Mr..
Knox who mentioned that modern
kitchens and bathrooms are being
installed in many homes, and other
reasonable cost improvements are
being made. This indication of
maintenance, he said, is good for
the city.
Both Mr.. Broer and Mr.. Knox
referred to the strict enforcement
of building code and zoning regula-
tions as a means Of maintaining
the city on high standard.
Since a number of churches have
recently completed or are in the
process of more or less extensive
improvements, Rev. hochwald was
asked on what basis the church
justifies such an expenditure. In
reply he said, referring to his own
congregation. that their improve
ment is based on their beliefs, be-
lief in their children, their church,
their city and their future. He stat
ed that as long as there are people,
the gospel of the ministry must
go forward.
Moderator for the stimulating
panel was Robert Riegler.

New Bus Extends Rapid:
No. 28 Express Slated To
Terminate At Green Rd.

! express over and above the express
fare, which is currently 20 cents.
All Of these plans except one,
which Donald c. Hyde, general
manager of the Cleveland Transit
System plans to propose to the
transit board were announced by
Mr.. Hyde to the East Cleveland
Community Council Thursday, No
vember 11th.
The exception concerns the No.
28 express bus. On Thursday eve
ming it was stated that there would
be no change on either the No. 80
Hayden ave., or the No. % Eu-
cid ave. express bus lines. Both
would be continued as now. How
ever, since then it is announced
that the No. % bus will terminate
it's eastbound run at Green I'd.
This will mean that No. % pas
sengers whose point of destination
is east of Green rd. can no longer
ride the full length of the present
No. % route. Instead they must
transfer to the "superduper" ex-
press bus at one of the three stops
to be made by that bus.
Traffic studies, said Mr.. Hyde,
had shown that a lot of people
east of Windermere do not work
down town; that a lot of people,
because of the origin and desti-
nation of their ride do not need
the rapid, that 20 per cent of Eu-
cid ave. riders are from west of
Superior and that many rapid
riders will need an extended fast
service.
His proposals also would elimi-
nate a number of "feeder" lines
which had been contemplated
earlier.
"We are going to try to make as
few changes as possible when
Rapid starts" said the general
manager of the fast expanding
CTS system. We are not sure yet
of the riding patterns, but will
change them as the need arises.
Mr.. Hyde believes that the new
services will not only relieve traf-
fic congestion along Euclid ave.,
but will prove helpful to indus
tries facing parking problems, since
so many more people will not have
to drive their automobiles back
and forth to work.
The rapid and the new super
express bus will open new trans
portation facilities to thousands of
workers in industries in Euclid.
A survey shows that only 17%o of
of these Employees reside in that
community.
= This latter fact also means that
sooner or later, CTS must open
new transportation lines to the
south of Euclid ave. to tap these
potential riders who now must |
drive their own cars since the Eu-
cid ave. lines are not Of service
to them. AS yet no plans to this |
effect have been announced.

NORTH CAROLINA PARKS
SHOW ATTENDANCE GAIN

Combined attendance for the
Blue Ridge Parkway and the
Great Smoky Mountains Nation
al Park, which converge in North
Carolina, was 107, 348 more dur
ing the first six months of 1854
than for the same period last
year.
National Park Service figures
show that the two attractions
were visited by 2,457, 1853 people
between January l and June 80
this year. Of these, 1,652,512
were reported for the Parkway
and 805,251 for the Smokes
Park. Parkway attendance was
1l0,421 greater than for the first
half of 1858, while Great
Smokes attendance declined
3,073.
Wright Brothers National
Monument, on the North Caro-
lima Coast, was visited by $4,000
people during the first six
months of 1854. This was only
1854 less than the total for the
same period in 1858, when the
Memorial set new attendance
records during the 5Oth anniver-
sary year of powered flight.
The Great Smokes Park and
the Blue Ridge Parkway, which
have become the most visited
national park facilities in the
land during the past few years,
