and the council agreed, that it's
work begun this year should be
continued next year, with the same
members as at present or with new
members appointed by the present
personnel. 1t was also agreed that
the committee should proceed from
the problem of prevention of juven-
lie misdeeds, studied this year, to
the problem of cure for them next
year.
In another part Of the Juvenile
Welfare Committees report, GER
tain recommendation made by the
committees meetings were detailed
and commented upon favorably.
These young people, members of
the Shaw High School Student
Council, spoke highly of the work
being done by the new Arbitration
Board of the school, and suggested
that Code of Behavior for teen
ayers be drawn up by panel con-
sisting of both young people and
adults: Junior and senior high
school students, PTA members, and
school officials. Such a code, the
students felt, would stand a better
chance of enforcement than one
drawn up by either students or
adults by themselves. Action upon
this proposal or something similar
to it is possibility for next year.
The Community Council voiced
its thanks to the Committee for its
year--long efforts, and voted it's
desire for it to continue its work
next year. Members of the Com
mittee in addition to Chairman

Your Dollars
Help Safety
In Our City

When you see a school patrol
with flag in hand helping fellow
students to cross the street has it
ever occurred to you where the flag
comes from? The answer is the
East Cleveland chapter Green
Cross. The flag is only one of
several items such as safety films,
pamphlets, etc. which this organi-
zation furnishes to the public for
the sole purpose of SAFETY.
The annual membership enroll
ment is now underway and for
every dollar you subscribe fifty
cents is kept right here in our own
local community to promote the
Safety program which protects
your children as well as all adults.
Mr.. Ernest M. Kregenow is
chairman of this worthy group and
gives much of his time to the
Green Cross which he feels is one
of the most important organiza-
tions we have because life itself is
involved.

City Health Director
Urqes Older Persons To
Get Free Chest X-Rays

The older person is, the more
important it is that he have an
annual chest x-ray.
This was the statement made this
week by DR.. James P. Winkler,
director of health for East Cleve-
land, as he urged all parents and
grandparents to make a special
effort to visit the Christmas Seal
x-ray buses during their forth
coming visit.
The x-ray buses will be in East
Cleveland from Monday, May 9th,
trough Saturday, June 9Th, offering
free chest x-rays to all persons 10
years or more of age.
In especially urging older per-
sons to have a chest x-ray, DR..
Winkler says that studies have
shown nearly ten times as much
tuberculosis among those x-rayed
in the age group over 65 as among
those in the age group from
Is to 19.
In the younger age group, 5.5
cases of tuberculosis were found
per 1000 chest x-rays. Twice as
much suspected TB was found in
the 90 to 49 year group, four times
as much in the so to SO year group
and six times as much in the 80
to Ga year group.
"In case after case, it has been
found that child with tuberculosis
caught his disease from an older
person in his own household" DR..
Winkler says.
"The best way to protect our
children from TB is to find every
unknown case Of the disease, es-
pecially among older adults, and to
bring such cases under prompt
medical supervision.
DR.. Winkler emphasizes that
early tuberculosis frequently has no
symptoms.
"Yet," he says, when tubercu-
losis is found early there is least
opportunity for spreading the
disease and best chance for prompt
and full recovery"
He says that x-raying the chests
of apparently healthy adults offers
the best means Of discovering un-
suspected TB in its early, most
easily treatable stages.
Every adult in our community
who wants to protect our children
especially if he is of middle age
and beyond-has an obligation to
make sure that he doesn't have
tuberculosis" DR.. Winkler says.
Christmas Seal mobile x-ray units
offer him the chance Of gaining this

Community Council Hears Plans
Of School, Board To Employ A
Social Case Worker Counselor

The East Cleveland Board o1
Education plans to employ a socia
case worker and counselor, or
either a whole-time or part-time
basis, whose duty will be ''to in
terpret home to school and school
to home"
This announcement was the
highlight of the long-awaited re-
port of the Juvenile Welfare Com
mittee of the East Cleveland Com
munity Council to its parent or
ganization, presented at the Coun-
cil's final meeting of the 1861
year held at Shaw High School
Thursday evening, May 9th. The
announcement of the S c h o
Boards decision to employ a case
worker was confirmed during the
question period by the Superinten-
dent of School, DR.. o. J. Korb, him
self member of the Juvenile We'll
fare Committee.
1T is uncertain as yet whether
this counselor will be a whole time
or part-time employee" DR.. Korb
said. at is a probable that he or
she would also have liaison work to
do with the courts and other agen-
cies, in which case the work being
done for the Board of Education
would be part-time."
The full report of the Committee,
headed by Mr.. J. Durant Mix, new
Community Council president, was
divided into three sections: the in
fluences upon our children of the
school, the home, and the church,
respectively. After an Introductory
statement read by Mr.. Mix, the
three divisions of the report were
read to the Council by Mrs. Charles
G. Weeks, retiring Council presi-
dent, Mrs. Ross Connell, and Mr..
Thomas E. Murry, in that order.
Through the entire report on
children's problems there seemed to
run one main theme: the import
ance of the family to the best in
trests of the young. An example
from each of the three fields con-
sidered by the report might be
cited. From the schools point of
view, the family's cooperation with
the visiting teacher is necessary if
the child is to be benefited to the
greatest extent: From the stand
point of the city authorities, in
Guiding the police, one of their
greatest handicaps is the refusal
of parents to believe that my child
could have possibly done such
thing" and their resistance to any
efforts being made to correct un-
healthy conditions. And as to a
child's religious life, if his parents
do not attend church themselves,
he sees little reason why he should
do so.
The entire Juvenile Welfare re-
port, a document of eleven pages,
is to be made available to interested
citizens of East Cleveland in a
of ways. Each of the city's
three public libraries is to receive
a copy, as will the Parent Teach
ers' Association Council; and it is
also hoped that each of the PTA
groups for the various schools of
the city will be given copies for
their use.
Future recommendations of the
Juvenile Welfare Committee were
made to the Community Council
following the reading of the re-
port. The committee recommended,
