East Cleveland Teachers
Get Salary Increase
Effective In September

Salary increases for teachers and
nurses in the East Cleveland Public
Schools, effective September 1866,
were voted by the Board Of Educa-
tion at its April meeting, Monday,
the 9th. The new $4,000 minimum
to a $4,000 maximum schedule
places the East Cleveland system
on a par with all the major metro
politan districts, according to DR..
o. j. Korb, superintendent.
The salary recommendation reso-
luton was proposed by the Finance
Committee Of which Karl Brown is
the chairman. 1t received unani-
nous vote.
At the same time increases were
voted for elementary principals
who will receive $500 compared to
a previous S7320; and for the
Junior and Senior High School
principals who will receive S9,75O,
compared to their previous $3.50.
Last September raises gave a
$500 minimum and a $1,000 maxi
mum salary for teachers and
nurses. The maximum is for teach
ers with master degrees.
Instructors will continue to re-
ceive the usual 5000 yearly in
crement, in addition to the salary
increase.
DR.. Korb explained that the board
had made a careful study of its
finances, projecting the study four
years, and had based its recon-
mendation on the anticipated in
comes, salary increments, the con-
tinuing moving up of teachers into
the higher salary bracket, and the
probable number of teachers which
would need to be hired each of the
four years.
The recently adopted 1856 budget
calls for a salary outlay of S2,254,-
600. Increases prompted by the
newest salary schedule increase
will add the following added salary
requirements for each of the four
years as follows:
For 1856 flour months: Septem-
Der through December) $15,100; for
1857 an added $53, 400; for 1858 an
added $4,000; for 1859 an added
ST., 400.
In addition to these increases due
to the boosted salary schedule, the
Board of Education will have to up
its payments to the Ohio State
Public Employees Pension Fund.
Employees pay 6Po of their salary
into the fund. Boards of educa-
tion pay almost go. This year the
school board will pay S112,364 into
the fund for educational employees,
and $25,700 for non-educational en-
ployees.
President c. S. Stonebraker
stated that the board would act on
increases for the non-educational
employees at the May meeting.
These increases become effective
with the fiscal year, as of July 1st.

Two additional new teachers were
employed by the East Cleveland

duties here with September, 1856.
Both are graduates of Shaw High

Miss Margaret Poirot, 1857 FL
wood School has completed three of
four years toward a, bachelors de-
gree at Kent State University
where she is preparing to teach in
the elementary grades. Miss Poirot

A place for everything and
everything at ones finger tip. This
is the rule by which members of
the East Cleveland Fire Depart
ment have designed and built their
own rescue truck. The prized posses
sion is ready to roll on every Fire
Emergency call, every fire call
Except grass fires) and to the
sos of the East Cleveland Police
Department.
The men began their job from
scratch with a practically stripped
panel truck. Using tempered sheet
aluminium for greater durability
and to keep down the weight, each
shelf, each cabinet, each compart-
ment, each open space has been
made to accommodate a certain
piece of equipment. The result is
custom, precision made rescue
truck of which the department may
well be proud.
As for the equipment, so neatly
arranged, Chief Fred W. Eange
states that most of it has been on
hand, but scattered about in other
vehicles or in the station. Now it
is all together in this one mobile
unit.
In addition to the usual rescue
tools and supplies, and meters for
determining the presence of carbon
monoxide or explosive gases, two
aluminium extension ladders are
tucked away between the tops of
cabinets and the roof. A dolly for
quick removal of a leaking re-
frigerator is close beside a fire
extinguisher.
Two stretcher victims can be
cared for at the same time, one
on the stretcher bench and the
other in the center hall" of the
interior arrangement. A rather low
rear doorway is buffeted with
rubber padding. No head bumps
here.
A power saw is to be added to
the truck.
The rescue truck will be well
manned, a lieutenant and a regu-
lar fireman being detailed for each
shift. All East Cleveland fire
fighters are trained Red Cross first
aid men, and their certificates are
kept up to date with refresher
courses. Five members of the de-
partment are certified Red Cross
first aid instructors. They are
Capt. Robert Harris, Lieut.. Royster
G. Ring, Lieut.. Miklich, Lieut..
Fenton Moore and Martin A.
Zagore, jr.
Extra lighting, both within and
without the truck was installed.
Charles McNoldy painted the let
tering on the outside panels.
The truck, purchased for $500,
with its cabinet work, is estimated
to be worth $4,000 by Chief Lang.

"Members" Is
Safety Council
Drive Goal

East Cleveland Safety Council is
out to garner in more zone dollar
and up" memberships in its May,
1856 Green Cross campaign than
it has enrolled in one effort since
it became a council in its own
right three years ago.
This is the deduction from the
campaign talk which marked the
meeting held Monday, April 9th at
Clark's Restaurant, with practic-
ally everyone present.
While the campaign does not get
underway until May 1st, citizens
are being alerted to the fact that
every Green Cross membership
made through the East Cleveland
Safety Council means fifty cents
for the work of the Council in East
Cleveland.
It's program, based on safety
education, has a budget of $500.
Much of the spade work for this
"enroll at home" Green Cross cam
paign will be done through the
efforts of the Division Chairman
through personal letters. Serving
in this capacity are:
School safety-E. NJ. Preston for
public schools and Charles Logan
for the parochial schools.
Fire safety-Fred w. Lange,
chief of East Cleveland Fire De-
partment.
Home safety-Mrs. Budd An
drews.
Public safety-H. S. Weaver,
Chief of Police.
Industrial safety-Robert Chees-
man, General Electric Co.
1t was announced that Mr.. Lange
and Mr.. Weaver have been ap-
pointed the chairmen, respectively,
of the Suburban Fire Chiefs and
Suburban Police Chiefs committees
in Green Cross Membership Drive
of the Cuyahoga County Safety
Council.

Explain Fall
Camping Plan
To Parents
what is school camping?"
"Who NAV go to camp %

What is school camping?"
"Who may go to camp?"
What are East Cleveland's
plans in school camping?"
what facilities are available to
my child at school camp?"
These questions and many more
will be answered at two parents
meetings to be held on April 10th
and April oath.
The meetings are planned to
explain the camping program for
9Th grade children which the
Board of Education plans to inau-
gurate with September.
The April 10Th meeting will be
held in Mayfair's Auditorium
especially for the parents of next
falls sixth graders at Rozelle,
Superior and Mayfair. The April
Oath meeting will be held in Pros
pect's Auditorium for Caledonia,
Chamber and Prospects parents

friends are welcome to attend.
Persons unable to attend their
schools meeting, are requested to
please attend the other meeting.
DR.. o. J. Korb, Superintend-
ent of Schools, and Mr.. Thomas
Meinhardt, Camp Director, will re-
port on the progresses so far in the
Board of Education plan for school
camping. A film borrowed from
South Euclid-Lyndhurst Board of
Education will provide parents
with a clearer picture of what
school camping can be. The pro-
gram will end with a question and
answer period.
East Cleveland's venture into
this comparatively new field of
education is not the first attempt
in this area, however, states DR..
Korb, Cleveland Heights has done
it for the past seven years, South
Euciid-Lyndhurst and Orange for
the last six years, while many
others, including Wickliffe, Beach
wood, Rocky River and Warren,
have recently begun their pro-
grams in outdoor education.

East Clevelanders give the nod
TO the Board of Education's new

city has always been keenly con-
scious of the worth of the best

East Cleveland streets are being
repainted by the Traffic Depart
ment, and after winter months
during which the lines are oblit-
Grated by the elements, the bright
yellow strips and the cautious
white lines are most welcome.
