Police Warn No
Lettering" " On
The Sidewalks

"Don't loiter on the sidewalks
or in front of places of business. I"
This is the warning issued
today by the Police Department to
groups of young boys and girls
who have congregated in certain
spots about town.
When one of a group Of six
juveniles, aged 12-14 years spat
on the sidewalk when asked by
police to move along from in front
of Windermere Theatre, he was
taken to police headquarters, and
his parents called in. After being
charged to Juvenile Court the
boy was released to the care of
his parents.
Parents are asked to know
where the children are, and to
see to it they return home after
attending the show, or some
other place of entertainment in
the evening.
"There will be no lettering on
sidewalks in East Cleveland" is
the word.

League Tag Day
Nets S17l0 For
Summer Program
by Bob Keefer

Thanks to the generosity of
many East Clevelanders, a total
of S1,71O.00 was contributed dur
ing the "Tag Day" drive conducted
Saturday by the East Cleveland
Little Leagues, Inc. "The local
citizenry came through magnifi-
Gently for this very worthy cause,
the first of its kind undertaken by
the ECLLI," says DIR. William
Morris who organized and con-
Quoted the tag day.
A systematic house to house
canvas got under way at 900 a. M.
as most of the players, managers
and coaches from the Colt, Pony
and Little League teams joined
forces with the league officials to
ring every doorbell in East Cleve-
land. Shopping centers were in
cluded in the drive with most of
the shoppers contributing gener-
ously to the boys appeal for
support.
Needless to say, it takes great
deal of money to supply the needs
for almost 500 East Cleveland
boys who take part in this popu-
lar baseball program now in its
fourth year of existence. For ex-
ample, in 1866 a total Of S5,478.28
was spent by the East Cleveland
Little Leagues, Inc. to meet the
needs of the organization.
Insurance coverage which pro-
vides for the safety of the players
not only during the games and
practice sessions but also during
their trip to and from the ball
field cost $650-certainly money
we'll spent.
The largest single expense,
equipment, such as balls, bats,
uniforms, etc. added up to $3.50.
Umpires fees totaled $289.50.
This amount would have been
doubled were it not for the fact
that Little League umpires do
mated their valuable services.
Thus, it is quite apparent that
it is impossible to operate the
leagues ION a shoestring" and,
therefore, without continued sup
port of local merchants who back
the teams, the grateful parents,
and other interested East Cleve-
land patrons, the ECLLI could not
possibly exist.
May we extend a grateful vote
of appreciation to everyone who
helped so generously in making
"Tag Day" a complete success, to
DR.. Morris and his committee for
a job well done; and to the players
who pitched in to do their part
in covering all residences and
shopping centers.
Because the venture was so
successful, it will undoubtedly be-
come an annual affair and we
hope that 1857 will be even more
fruitful.

Two Local Girls
At Buckeye State

Two members of Buckeye Girls
State now in session on the
campus of Capital University,
Columbus, represent East Cleve-

a senior at Shaw High School, and
Mary Ann Hayes, a senior at Ur-

similar to Buckeye Boys State, in
that it is made up of two mythical
parties who nominate, campaign
and elect officials for all state,
county and city offices. This years
parties are "Nationalists and
Federalists."
In addition to learning how
government functions on these
three levels, the girls also learn
that there is a place in government
for women.
