Shaw Highs successful football
season came to grand climax
last Wednesday evening as stu
dents, parents, faculty and special
guests packed the school cafeteria
to honor the Cardinals Lake Erie
League co-champions.
In setting truly "fit for kings"
the football squad willingly accept

on the gridiron. Not overlooked
was the fact that Shaw's bid for
their first undefeated season III II
years was spoiled by the Euclid

was filling dish for any hungry
player. Shaw's ensemble provided
ideal dinner music. The Rev. E. c.

players.

Cotton Crop
Estimated Made
BY the Associated Press

The Agriculture Department
estimates the 1856 cotton crop
at 13, 1908, 900 bales of 500 pounds
gross weight.
This final estimate of the sea-
son is 10000 bales more than
the November forecast of 49,
153, 900 bales. 1t compares also
with 14,721, 900 produced last
year and 100000 for the To-
year (1945-5D average.
The estimated crop is well
above the goal Of 10 million
bales to which the department!
had sought to hold production.
The department had imposed
acreage planting allotments and
marketing quotas in an attempt
to limit production. Cotton
stocks. including huge Govern
ment-owned supplies, are at an
all-time high.
However, because of Govern
ment- financed export programs,
the department has forecast that
cotton stocks on hand a year
from now will be sharply re-
|duced.

In Traffic So
Far This Year

Traffic in Cuyahoga county took
a toll of 81 lives up to March :.
This is the shocking fact revealed
in the first complete tabulation
made by the Cleveland Safety
Council.
Previously the figures have been
available only for Cleveland city
totals. The countrywide record
keeping has been established at
the suggestion of Leonard Z. Loos,
chairman of Euclid Safety Council
and Schools Safety chairman.
During the time that 20 persons
were being killed by Cleveland
traffic, there were eight killed in
other cities: Euclid 2, Garfield
Heights 2, Bedford l, Berea /,
Lakewood I, and Maple Heights /.
None were killed in the town.

lagos: Broadview Heights /, Inde-
pendence 1, and Moreland Hills l.
If fatalities should continue this
year at the same rate, another $50
persons could be victims of the
automobile this year!
The additional accounting to
present the full picture of high
way horror is being made possible
by the cooperation of DR.. Gerber,
coroner, and the Cleveland Safety
Council which is supplying the
secretarial help to maintain the
