Up Slightly

the East Cleveland School District
calls for an expenditure of S2,257-
10000 compared to the expected

City Plants III
Trees Replaces
;, Trims 164

The long, wet, cold Spring which
has delayed planting of all kinds,
has also delayed the city's tree
planting program. Now, however,
reports William Robertson, city
forester, I'll trees have finally
been received and planted. All I'll
trees are of the varieties recon-
mended by the National Shade Tree
Association as especially adaptable
to the vigors of city tree living.
Planted are 1873 Norway naples,
including 81 Cleveland's (bushy
type) and 81 Columnars "a slender
type) and 81 Ironwoods in the
American Hopthorn category. The
new paintings average five to six
feet and will attain heights of ap-
proximately 25 feet.
Replaced in front of W. H. Kirk
Jr. High School were three Paul
Scarlet hawthornes, beautiful
Towering trees.
Mr.. Robertson reminds that a
permit is necessary to remove or
plant tree in the tree lawn.
Anyone desiring to plant tree
either in the tree lawn or on his
own property is invited to consult
Mr.. Robertson as to the tree best
fitted for the location, soil condi-
tion, sewer connections, resistance
to disease, etc.
The city maintains thorough
tree inspection and tree spraying
program, promptly removing any
diseased tree, and "doctoring" a
tree that can be saved.
During the first three months
of this year the Forestry Division
trimmed 164 trees and removed
seven diseased elms from city
owned property.

This Is The
East Cleveland
We re Proud Of

Returning from New York City
one rainy evening recently, Mrs.
David Grossman was given a lift
home by an East Cleveland FAM
lily, leaving her umbrella in their
automobile. She remembered the
street on which they told her they
lived, but could not recall their
name, but even so she did try to
locate them.
A few days later a neighbor
told Mrs. Grossman about find
ing an umbrella on the doorknob
on the frontdoor. She could not
imagine why or how it got there.
Yes, it was Mrs. Grossman's UNI
brella, and she wishes to say
"Thank You" to the East Cleve-
landers who made the effort to
locate her home, which they saw
but once and that on a dark rainy
night.
Would you believe that a new
dress could be lost on busy Euclid
ave. for "a hours and be found by
it's owner? Sounds incredible,
doesn't it, but it did happen.
The owner of the brand new
frock, is employed far East, and
when weather permits walks from
her apartment in the Euclid-Lee
neighborhood to Noble I'd. where
she picks up ride to her place
of employment. She returns home
by bus.
Tuesday morning, last, she took
the dress, in an ordinary grocery
store bag, to have friend check
the pinned-up hemline. Arriving at
Noble rd. she discovered she had
lost the bag. Time did not permit
retracing of steps. By evening it
seemed useless to search for 1t.
The following morning, while
walking as usual toward Noble rd.,
the owner of the dress suddenly
spied on the treelawn near Cola
mer ST., familiar brown bag, up
against a telephone pole. In it was
her dress, undamaged, although the
bag itself was damp from the
nights rain.

When water supply from the
Nottingham reservoir suddenly
went to zero Monday, due to a
power failure, the switch board at

TO answer the citizens during the
brief cut off.
Oh for a swim at Shaw Pool.
But this cool spot is closed due to
construction delay on both the new
bath house and the school boards

get finished when they think they

right now.
Director of Law Stanley Webster
made his first official appearance
at the Zoning Board and the City
Commission this week. In this ca
pacity he sits in on all zoning and

their home as a member or the
family, rather than as a guest.
Reviewing briefly the origin of
American Field Service, Mr.. Blough
related how it was founded by a
group of Americans as volunteer
ambulance service for France be-
fore America became involved in
World War |. 1t transferred to the
American Expeditionary Forces
when the United States became a
part of that conflict. In World
War II the group reactivated.
Among the men who first volun-
teered were John B. Austin, 1857
Brewster rd., and member of
local Kiwanis; the late Louis
Bromfield, Ernest Hemingway,
to mention but a few.
At the close of hostilities, want
ing to do something to foster a
b ter understanding between
youth of the various nations, the
group founded American Field
Service, with foreign youth coming
here in the winter, and American
youth going abroad in the summer.
During the months of work on
this far-reaching service program,
the Interim Committee under the
leadership of Robert NJ. Kerr,
chairman Of the clubs Boys and
Girls Committee, had as laison,
the ATS Cleveland representative,
Miss Madeline Williams.
But while the Interim Commit
tee as such, has completed it's
assignment, Chairman Kerr is re-
tanning it as the Permanent ATS
Committee, ready to be of what
ever service necessary during the
youths stay in East Cleveland.
Willing to continue their response
bilities are DR.. NJ. Wayne Nc
queen, minister Of Windermere
Methodist Church of which the
Alexanders are active members;
DR.. Howard NJ. Wells, minister
First Presbyterian Church whose
son, Brad, had a summer expert
ence under ATS; Mr.. and Mrs.
Hamilton Beatty, DR.. John Culver,
of the faculty of Case Institute of
Technology, and Mr.. Blough.
Students at Shaw, with whom
Mr.. Blough discussed the project,
are enthusiastic over Alf's coming.
To acquaint him somewhat with
his coming school year, they have
sent him copies of the Shaw Hand
book and the Shuttle. They are
also saving a berth for him on
their Student Council.
A guest membership at the
YMCA has been extended through
the courtesy of Gordon Esch,
executive secretary at the East
Cleveland YMCA.
Commenting on their endeavor
Mr.. Kerr says that now, Kiwanis
having started it, it is hoped that
other community groups in the
community will find it a natural
problem of value and be another
of the sponsors for 1000 boys and
girls, the foster sons and daughters
in homes scattered in the 48 states.
In presenting the youth to the
club Monday, Mr.. Blough chose
the unique approach of the first
person, adding greatly to the pre-
sentation as he told about my
life, my country, my keen inter-
est in coming to America, and my
hope of proving good foster son
to my American foster parents"
Mrs. Alexander was presented
with an orchid corsage.
AS for Alf, he is ft. 9 in. tall.
weighs 152 pounds, is a top and
leader" student, is interested in
skiing and track, plays the clarinet,
has had five and one-half years of
English and also speaks German
and French, along with his native
Norwegian.
Among his questions are elgibil-
ity in athletic contests.
