Strang is accompanying him to
East Cleveland AS a team they
will continue their wing-T with
multiple Offense system which
spanked the US team to two Nor
thern Ohio League championships.
In this league Upper Sanduskq
triumphed over Norwalk, Gallon,
Willard, Bellevue, Shelby, Bucyrus,
Tiffin, Columbian, despite the fact
that it was the smallest in the
league.
Seventh in the balloting for the
1866 Ohio High School Coach of
the Year, Strang is generally con-
sidered the coach with the bright
est future.
In his five years at Upper San
dusky six Of Strang's boys were
on five all-Ohio teams, three Of
them on first line-ups. In 1853
back, Dave Kuensli, was the lead
ing Ohio scorer with 227 points. He
was also United Press Back of
the Year" that fall.
The new coach was a four-year
Varsity man at both Ashland High
School and Ashland College where
he also did two postgraduate
years in Physical Education. His
minors are Art and Science. He
made the MOL all-league team two
times as a high school player and
was Ohio Back Of the Year" in
his senior year.
He has served three years in
the United States Navy.
Strang, S3, his wife, Betty, and
their two sons will be moving to
East Cleveland prior to the fall
practice season.
w. W. Haves, football coach and
professor of Physical Education,
Ohio State University:
Il regard Leo Strang as one
Of the truly outstanding young
high school coaches in Ohio. He
has a very keen technical knowl-
edge of football. He also has
personality to go along with his
good coaching. have watched him
work with his players and he does
an excellent job with them, get

certainly commands each boys re-
spect. He carries the same capa-
bilities into his classroom"
Sidney E. Boyd, assistant prin-
cipal, Upper Sandusky High School
writes:
"He (Strang) is a thorough
coach both in technical detail and
in working with boys. His athletic
work is well organized through
the lower high school grades and
football is taught with excellent
results.
II don't believe you could find
a stronger candidate in the state.
81 sincerely believe that Leo
Strang is as ready to move from
a medium sized high school to a
larger one as was Tommy Harp
from Carrolton to Massilon, Bob
Bronson from New London to
Portsmouth, as Tom McNea from
Columbiana to Mansfield"
Paul Hoernemann, coach at
Heidelberg College: Reiterating
much that has been said by others
mentions the high esteem in which
Mr.. Strang is held in both the
school system and the community.
Harold V. Cope, superintendent
of schools in Upper Sandusky
writes:
"We have found him (Strang) a
fine teacher and a very strong
football coach. He is much in
terested in public education. He
has a fine character and is highly
respected among the student body,
the faculty and the community" /"

City Studies
High Bath
House Bids

Building comes high. The city
officials found this out with some
what of a jolt Monday, March 9Th,
when they opened the ten bids re-
ceived for erection of a bath house
at Shaw Pool. The price ran on a
fairly even level from $11,153 or
Sl2O,316 to $140,539 or $143, ,465 and
far beyond original estimates.
The two quotations in each in
stance are due to a question of
using terrazzo flooring in only
parts of the building and concrete
in the rest, or all concrete.
A study is being made of the bids
and it is hoped to have ready a
recommendation for the City Com
mission meeting Tuesday, March
18th.
The bid cost is not all the ex-
penditure of this improvement,
states City Finance Director G. T.
Apthorp.
In addition to the 49x109 feet
one story with sun deck building,
the city must make major changes
in playground layout to locate
the bath house on the opposite side
of the pool from the former locker
accommodation under the now
razed section of Shaw Stadium.
These changes will include shift
ing the baseball diamond and
bleachers, widening and revamp-
ing of sidewalks, certain changes
in the new Stadium plan included
in the board of education's contract
but to be paid for by the city. 1t
is also proposed to take advantage
of the construction period to put
a new bottom in the pool.
Every effort will be made to
complete the contract by July
ist and open the new bath house
and the renovated pool at that
time.

City Has A
Pretty Good
Polio" Year


was the second highest in the traf-
flee violations in East Cleveland in
1866 and in the majority of
similar reports from other dis
tricts. In East Cleveland 571 of
the 4,517 traffic arrests in 1855
were due to indifference to these
signs. Only speeding" had more,
with 1885 speeding charges.
Going further into the report as
compiled by Chief of Police H. S.
Weaver, the traffic violations show
up other startling totals. For in
stance: crashing red light, 382;
driving while intoxicated, 285; fail
ure to make a boulevard stop, 262;
careless driving, lat.
In addition 21,260 traffic tickets
were issued resulting in fines and
costs of S17,798.25. Parking waivers
cost violators S22,962. The city
operates 7O1 parking meters on the
streets and Is in Hawley Park.
A total of 1,136 vehicles were in
volved in 977 accidents causing
three deaths, injuries to 106 persons
and property damage in 868 in
stances.
Following too close" and "Fail-
ure to yield right-of-way," lead the
causes for traffic accidents. On the
"yielding" count, the State of Ohio
has a new triangle traffic sign call
ing attention to this new safety
rule for drivers.
Then there are the pedestrians.
They cause trouble, too. They will
iaywalk, they will cross against
lights, they will walk in the road
way. In fact, 43 of them walked"
themselves right into the 1855
police annual report for just such
violations.
The report shows 27@o In
crease in major crimes, a 17%o de-
crease in lesser crimes, and 1870
decrease in misdemeanors.
Only 458 juveniles came to the
police departments attention.
Modern devices play an important
part in maintaining accuracy and
speeding action in Investigations.
Aside from actual police incidents,
the lie detector was used 27 times
by industry in detecting thefts and
81 times on applicants for city jobs.
Neighboring suburbs also use the
detector.
In 34S alcometer tests the ma
chine decided 269 cases Of driving
while intoxicated. Through the
countrywide teletype hookup, the
department received 1888 mess
ages from other police departments
and sent 235. Cases concerning
stolen cars, robberies, breaking and
entering assault, pick-ups for other
jurisdictions are teletyped.
The jairs guest book listed 1,775
male prisoners and no women
prisoners during the year. A matron
is on duty the entire time woman
prisoner is detained.
Police answered 1852 complaints
and made 1871 radio calls.
Police are required to put in a
certain number of hours weekly on
target practice in the city's pistol
range.
In conclusion, Chief Weaver
points to the fact that the East
Cleveland Police Department is ma
tionally known for its efficiency
and service to the community. 1t
is used as a model for various de-
partments in this county. Weaver
terms it "the best for its size in
the United States.

Red Suspect Gets Permit

William Shonick, District piano

his case yesterday. but it was a
pyrrhic victory.
In the first place, he has
moved to New York and nc
longer wants a secondhand
dealers license here. And even
If he did, the District license
year ends tomorrow, so he would
have just one day to enjoy the
privilege.
The decision was made by the
District Board of Appeals and
Review on the recommendation
of hearing officer. Charles W.
Hart.
Mr.. Shonick, whose piano shop
was last located in the 5000 block
of Fourth street NV, has been
the target of accusations that he
followed the Communist Party
line. The city's superintendent
of licenses held that, because of
the alleged Communist leanings,
his character was not sufficiently
good to merit issuance Of sec
ond-hand dealers license.
Mr.. Hart ruled, however, that
Mr.. Shonick'S reported Com
munist leaningS have nothing to
do with his qualifications as a
secondhand dealer.
The chief basis for the suspi-

party and, on that account,
