Burning Wires
DAMAGE Street

Sundays electrical and wind
storm worked some havoc here,
but the city escaped the severe
damage suffered by surrounding
communities. Countless tree limbs
were blown off, and electrical
wires were down, cutting off serv-
ice temporarily.
The most severe damage resulted
TO the pavement on Stanwood rd.,
opposite Grandview Terrace where
two 1900 volt high tension wires
were blown down. The wires were
exploding and setting fires and
burned or blew up asphalt and
concrete for an area of about 40
square feet. A section of curbing
that came loose was blown to the
opposite side of the street.
Wire repairs were made by the
Cleveland Electric Illuminating
Company whose many crews were
kept busy for hours following the
storm. The city will make the
necessary curb and street surfac-
ing repairs.

Hospital Given
1000 Pints Of
Blood Last Year

The many-storied red brick
building at the corner Of Terrace
rd. and Forest Hills blvd. is
familiar to every East Clevelander.
Many ponder as they pass by, at
the never ceasing activity, obvious
even when seen thru car windows.
One of the always available med
icines at Huron Road Hospital is
human blood.
Last year your Cleveland Red
Cross shipped more than 1000
pints of blood to Huron Road
Hospital. Blood you gave thru the
Red Cross as a bank for your
family, your organizations, and in
an emergency, your community.
You gave your dollars for the
blood program of the Red Cross
last spring. Now, be smart and
let the Red Cross use those dollars
to best advantage by coming out
$50 strong on July 18th at Win
dermere Methodist Church. The
more pints collected in one day the
less the cost of collecting each pint.
The more pints in the bank, the
better for all. The need for blood
is four-season affair. The respon-
sibility is yours. Call MU. 1880
right now for an appointment.

road for added playground pur-
poses. One of the bond issues,
roughly estimated at about $780,
900 will cover the cost Of devolping
this area. To be included are the
usual playground accessories, plus
an ice skating rink. Added park
facilities are also contemplated.
The other issue, in about the
same amount. will be used to en-
large and renovate City Hall. All
departments in the city are crowd
ed for space due to the constant
increase in municipal activities.
The two proposals were outlined
to the Commission Tuesday eve
ming by City Finance Director
G. T. Apthorp who made it clear
that actual costs are not deter
mined at this early date, but will
be before the measures are pre-
sesented to the voters.
To get the proposals on the No
vember ballot, the city must enact
the necessary legislation within
the specified time limit.
The city has retained Arthur E.
Rowe & Associates as architects
for the city hall building program.
Recreation Director Roy Wisecup
is assisting in the planning for the
playground improvement.
The previous building program
bond issue was voted by the city
