Wilbur c. Lawrence, President,
East Cleveland Business Associ-
alton -
Industry has spent millions in
new machinery and buildings to
create high quality products. The
physical body of man was created
by God; the spiritual and COM
munity leadership body of man is
created by associations and family
life. The East Cleveland Y.M.C.A.
with its fine new building and
leadership are now given tools
with which to promote and foster
clean speech, clean sportsmanship,
clean scholarship and clean living
among the youth Of East Cleve-
land. May these objects be well
carried out"
DIR. Martin c. Lotus, President,
Kiwanis Club of East Cleve-
land -
"The Kiwanis Club of East
Cleveland expresses best wishes
for continued success of the East
Cleveland Young Mems Christian
Association.
"The new building will become
the hub of community activity, and
we Of Kiwanis are happy to be one
of several groups using the build
ing as our meeting place"
Mrs. Anthony J. CelebreeEe,
President Cleveland Council Camp
Fire Girls Inc.-"Congratulations
to the Young Mems Christian As
sociation upon the occasion of the
dedication of the East Cleveland
Y Branch Building. Greater facili-
ties assure extended service of the

children and adults of the COM

better community. For that we are
grateful"

building and keeping it that way.
Ernie is equally proud of Y boys
who have made success in their
chosen careers, who have served
the Y as board members and es-
pecially three boys, who have en-
tered the Y field. They are Jim
Whyte, now Camp Director at the
Greater Cleveland YMCA; Bill
Markell, physical director at the
same place; and Bill Cumler, Boys
Secretary in Chicago Branch.
Comparing youth of yesterday
with youth today, Ernie remarks
that it was never any trouble to
get the boys to lend a helping
hand in exchange for an ice cream
Sundae, but today's youth are not
as eager to carry chairs, or do
other services around the building.
"Times change" says Ernie, as he
shakes his head and smiles.

One of the active-and active

ing the Y House is the Canteen.
It's members are from Kirk Jun
ior High School, more than 200
being members and an average of
125 coming to the rollicking every
other -Friday-night dance at the Y
House.
Now in it's fifth year the Can
teen is self-governed, elects own
Student Committee, another mark
of YMCA autonomy. This COM
mittee plans the dances which
vary in type from time to time,
and which are held from along in
October through June.
Serving in an advisory capacity
are Mrs. Hazel Klinger, executive
secretary at the East Cleveland
YMCA center, and Gordon Esch,
executive secretary at the YMCA
Branch.
The co-eds hold their respective
Y memberships and in addition pay
15c night to dance. The 15c goes
to provide records, set up the snack
bar, and meet any other expenses
of the Co-Ed Canteen.

Of all the persons who have been
associated with the East Cleveland
YMCA Branch since it first opened
its doors 35 years ago, none can
boast of a service record equal
to that held by Ernest Purnell.
Ernie" as he is favorably known
to the hundreds of Y boys and
men who have been at the Y during
these more than three decades,
claims to be the one "fixture"
in the personnel link. He has been
the caretaker since E. V. Rasmus-
sen founded and became the local
Y's first executive secretary in
1921.
It's far cry from that make

Frank II. Fellows, President. East

Cleveland City Commission -
although operating with limited
facilities over the years, the
YMCA has contributed materially
to the development of the character
Of our East Cleveland youth, and
has provided the type Of leadership
that is so vital in combating the
delinquency problem that con-
fronts us all. The completion of
this fine new building with it's
modern facilities is the culmina-
tion of the dreams of many who
have worked long and hard to
provide our young people with the
best possible recreation program.
1t is to them we say Thanks for
your vision and congratulations
for bringing your dreams to life on
the completion of this beautiful
Recreation Center"

Need for Federal Aid
On Classroom SHORTAGE

The responsibility for public
education rests with the States
and the local communities. Fed
eral action which infringeS upon
this principle is alien to our sys-
tenn. But our history has demon
Strated that the Federal Gov
eminent, in the interest of the
whole people, can and should
help with certain problems of
Nationwide scope and concern
when States and communities
acting independently - cannot
solve the full problem or solve
1t rapidly enough.
Clearly. this is the kind of sit
uation we face today in consid-
ering the school classroom short
age. In the war and postwar
periods, school construction was
drastically curtailed by short
ages of materials. And then
schools were filled to overlooking
by the largest, most rapid en-
rollment increase in history. To-
day, hundreds of thousands of
children study under overcrowded
conditions. in halliday or
doubled-up school sessions, or in
make-shift buildings not designed
as schools. Further. many class
rooms in use today are obsolete,
inadequate-and each year more
rooms become so. School en-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-01-12

rollments will continue to in
crease rapidly over the years
ahead-and this will require still
more clasSroomS.
Against this backdrop of needs
States and communities are SUBJ
stantial increasing their class
room construction. But many
communities simply do not have
available locally the resources
needed to cope both with the
legacy Of shortages from past
years and with future needs,
Unless these communities get
aelp, they simply cannot provide
enough good schools. The best
estimates indicate that, on a
nationwide basis. the current
rate Of construction only a little
more than meets each years
new enrolment and replacement
needs. This rate barely dents the
large accumulation of needs
from past years.
The rate Of classroom con-
struction must be further in
creased, as The White House
Conference on Education asked,
by greater combined effort of
local and State governments.
And the Conference concluded
that Federal assistance also is
necessary. The facts support
this conclusion.

Research

| Basic to ell endeavors in i'm
proving education is vigorous
and far sighted program Of edu-
cational research. This has been
a sorely neglected field.
/ Such a program should be
comprehensive in its approach,
planned on a broad scale and ex-
ecuted thoroughly In this way
educational research can, among
other things. point the way to
advances in making life more
meaningful to more people and
in the more efficient use of man.
power and funds for education.
To increase the effectiveness
of education, national leadership
could well be directed to research
in such areas as: Ways Of edu-
eating more people to their full
est capacity: stating and hous-
ing the Nations schools and COL
Ileges; educating the retarded
child to help him lead a more
normal life, and educating the
child of special abilities so that
he may utilize these abilities
more fully; the relationship of
schools to Juvenile delinquency;
educational effects of population
mobility: educational needs of
low income families, These
studies would be conducted
Through the Office OF Education
in cooperation with the Ma
tons colleges, universities and
State departments of education,
thus encouraging and strength
ening existing research efforts.
1t is imperative that we now
give renewed attention ana sup
port to this arm of education
to the end that the country may
have a sound, factual basis for
identifying and Analysing prob
LENS and finding solutions. For
these research purposes, and also
TO expand and improve other

Conclusion

These several proposals are
designed. not only to correct
current problems. but to build
for the future. For today's de-
cisions will influence tomorrow's
education-and, hence, the well
fare Of the Nation.
The actions here proposed, I
believe. constitute a sound and
realistic approach to those edu-
cational problems on which the
Federal Government should now
act. They have a primary reli-
ance on the private initiative
which wells from the free spirit
OF a free people.
With this program. we can lay
the basis for better education in
America in the years ahead. In
this way we keep faith with our
children.

"A five-year, $50 million pro-
gram Of matching grants to
States for planning to help COM
munities and States overcome
obstacles to their financing of
school construction.
If speedily and fully utilized,
this Federal. program-added to
the increased basic efforts of
States and communities--should
overcome the Nations critical
classroom shortage within five
years. Once this shortage is
overcome. the Federal grant pro-
gram can and must terminate.
The States and localities should
then go forward, without Fed
eral funds, to meet their current
and future needs. Present con-
.struction levels indicate their
ability to do this.
I am confident the Federal
Government with this program
can help construct schools with
out in any way weakening the
American tradition that control
of education must be kept close
to the local communities. Any
legislation enacted should en-
body this principle.
