the bystander in self defense
under belief Mr.. Conidas was 60
ing to attack him.

presided at the trial, ruled out
the second degree murder
charge before the case went to
the jury. Acting on motion OF

the prosecution had failed to
prove any malice, which is neces-
sary to convict for second degree
murder.

VermiIIion

degree from Columbia University,
was superintendent of schools in
Gallipolis, Ohio prior to coming
to East Cleveland, where he has
become a leader in the educational
field.
In addition to his duties as prin-
cipal at Chambers School, he is
Director of Visual Education and
has charge of Tests and Measure
ments for all the schools here.
His deep interest in youth has
made him a valuable citizen to the
community. He is a past presi-
dent of the East Cleveland Com
munity Council, active in Kiwanis,
was a member of the War Me-
mortal Committee which decided
the Music Listening Room at the
library as a tribute to the city's
service men. He is active in vari-
Gus groups in his profession.
Speaking of educational trends
during the past 25 years, Mr.. Ver-
million states that. the emphasis
has shifted from the three Rs to
a well-rounded child development
program in which the three Rs are
still an integral part.
Aside from his concern over a
child's grasp of the fundamentals
in education, Mr.. Vermillion is
concerned with those things that
go into the building and develop
ing of decent, honorable citizen
ship that will carry over into ones
adult life.
He holds that a part Of the job
as citizen of a Republic is to
make a contribution to his COM
munity over and above that which
is represented in merely giving an
honest days work for a days pay.
Mr.. Vermillion, in turn, pays
this tribute:-
"Our twenty-five years in East
Cleveland have been happy ones
and we owe so much to so many
that pages would be needed to
voice our appreciation.
Certainly we must pay tribute
to Boards of Education and ad-
ministrative leadership that down
through the years have accorded
us a full measure of their support
and encouragement. To parents
who have willingly accepted and
shared fully in the solution of
problems of so vital concern to
all of US and, especially, to the
Chambers Parent Teacher Associa-
ton which has been bulwark of
strength at all times.
"But, most of all, do we want
to pay full measure of our tribute
to a corps of teachers who, down
through the years, have given
more than any principal dare ask
or expect. They are loyal, de-
voted and dedicated to the task of
teaching the young people as
signed to their care. Theirs, as
anyone must realize, is the story
behind the story and our personal
regard for them knows no bounds"

Giants S Cuusewuy
Easily Explained
By Irish Legend
BELFAST.


Projecting from the north coast
OF Ireland. near here, the cele-
brated Giant Causeway consists
Of some 10000 pillars of paved
basalt rock, packed so closely
together as to form a sort of
paved roadway extending out
into the sea.
Legend has it that the Irish
giant, Fin MacCoul, built the
Causeway. and here's the story:
In the dim and distant past
there was a certain Caledonian
giant in Scotland who claimed
to be able to beat any other
giant, regardless of weight, height
or reach. Fin MacCoul, cham
pion of Ireland, invited this
boastful neighbor to come over
and have a go at him.
The Scottish giant replied that
he did not wish to get his feet
wet making the crossing, so Fin
MacCoul built the Causeway. The
Scottish giant could find no
further excuse to avoid the bout,
so over he came and suffered a
clean knockout at the hands Of
Fin MacCoul.
Fin, with characteristic Irish
generosity, invited his defeated
rival to remain in Ireland, which
he did, settling down, marrying
and living happily every after.
