In line with one of its primary
detectives - physical fitness - the
Y.M.C.A. is taking cue from the
report presented to President
Eisenhower on the physical fitness
of American youth.
All Of these reports referred to
the lack of physical fitness of
American school children who fail
in the simple tests of minimum fit
ness which European children pass
so easily.
With this thought in mind,
new physical fitness testing pro-
gram is being inaugurated for all
boys and men who register for the
Fall Y.M.C.A. physical education
classes. The tests will be given by

Russia Holds
Surprise For
The Visitor

His impression of Russ a
CLEANED in two weeks visit there
this summer, proved somewhat of
a surprise to fellow Kiwanians
and their wives to whom the Rev.
Earle C. Hochwald spoke Monday
noon. Rev. Hochwald was one of
q 25-man study group to partici-
pate in an European Seminar of
the National Council of Social Ac-
tion of the Congregational
Churches Of the United States this
summer.
Russians, he said, are proud of
their heritage. They pack their
museums day after day. They buy
more books than soft drinks and
ice cream. They are people proud
Of their progress since the time
of the czars.
II was prepared TO dislike Rus
sia was disillusioned," he
said. Moscow, the third largest
city in the world, is making a
boulevard of every street. Looking
down some of the streets, the fac
ades are shabby. But back of
them beautiful new structures are
mounting, and when ready for oc-
cupancy, the old buildings will be
razed and the street widened and
transformed into boulevard.
"Atomic Energy for Peaceful
Purposes" was the sign on one of
SO exhibition halls covering more
than 600 acres, practically in the
heart of the city. This building
was packed as the people viewed
what atomic energy could do when
turned into peaceful uses.
"How far do we lean over in
our efforts to see that a foreigner
in our country is made happy and
his visit made pleasant" he asked
as he commented on courtesy as
an outstanding common trait of
the people he met in all countries
visited, and in Russia, "this was
true to phenomenal degree"
Rev. Hochwald said that not
once in all his travels was he ever
treated with anything except
courtesy. He found public employ
ees and the people everywhere
kind, friendly and "ready to turn
over backwards" to be of assist
ance.
American customs in New
York treated me with more rude
ness than did anyone l met all
summer. They did even worse to a
cultured college professor next in
line, who knew little English.
Every day the tombs of Lenin
and Stain are open, the crowds
start congregating at 4:3O in the
morning to be there when the tenn
perature drops to 20 degrees be-
low zero.
Rev. Hochwald believes there is
hope when 1000 people crowd into
a church accommodating 1000. He
attended such a church service,
one Of three held each Sunday,
and four times during the week in
that church.
AS an example Of their desire
to be of service, Rev. Hochwald
said his hotel clerk searched the
entire city of Moscow to find a
typewriter with English lettering.
The portable was handed to hins
with no questions asked as to why
he wanted, what he was going to
write or where he was sending his
writings.
AS a sidelight on daily living,
Rev. 1ochwald said the people
pay aba lutelyf 10 attention to traf-
fic signAls no, traffic officers. At
one inteiSe>efon, he observed the
people crossing against traffic, de-
spite the whistles of five traffic
policemen and the signals flashed
by traffic lights.

Where does the money go? Not
your family budget, but the money
raised by the League of Women
Voters of East Cleveland in it's
annual finance campaign, being
held this year from September 18
to 80.
Two hundred and forty-eight
new voters, graduates of Shaw
High School in 1854, and now 21
year-oids, received Voters Priin-
er and information on where to
register. This welcome to new
voters" is an annual event, and it
is the hope of the League that a
new voter, once started as voter,
will keep on being one. AS Mrs.
Harry Willert, Voters Service
chairman, said in the letter, "How
you vote is your own business. But
unless you have registered by Sep
tember 25, you won't be voting at
ALL"
Fourteen thousand Voters
Scoreboards were distributed to
churches, PTA's, and civic groups
at the last election, and plans are
underway for a city-wide distri-
button with the generous help of
the East Cleveland Leader this
year. The scoreboards give bio
graphical information prepared by
the candidates for office, as well
as pros and cons on issues facing
the voter. The League itself is
non-partisan, backing only issues,
never candidates.
Mrs. Theodore Pinney, chair
man of the Finance Campaign,
started her corps of workers off
with full kits yesterday, and has
high hopes of reaching the cam
paign goal of $635.00. Working
