Women Call For
"A Consolidated
Health Collection

Encouraged by the results of the
Gates Mills initial health collection
drive of last year, and the follow
ing petition seeking decision OF
Shaker Heights, women of 10 East
Side suburbs on Monday decided to
conduct a Consolidated Health Col
lection May 4th TO 18th, 1858.
OF the eight health agencies con-
tacted, five have approved, two
have declined and one has so far
failed to reply.
The five deciding to join the con-
solidation are: Cleveland Area
Heart Society, Arthritis and Rheu-
matism Foundation, Diabetes As
sociation, Cerebral Palsy and
Nephrosis.
Declining are the polio founda-
ton and Muscular Dystrophy. Still
not replying is the Cancer Society.
Under the Consolidated Health
Collection, one check would cover
the five agencies, the gift being
pro-rated as indicated on the en-
yelope by the contributor.
The meeting was held in the
home Of Mrs. Norman Davies, 2949
Broxton rd., Shaker Heights, who
with Mrs. George j. Urban, wife
of South Euclid's mayor are head
ing the group. Both have had ex-
perience in pioneering for such a
movement to ease both the donor
and the women who have been
making many calls where one will
now suffice for at least four
agencies.
Euclid was represented by Mrs.
Mildred Baker, secretary to Mayor
Kenneth Sims.
East Cleveland was not repre-
sented at the meeting.

Shaw Public Swim
Night Date Set

In answer to the question about
apartment heat: The East Cleveland
ordinance requires no less than 6S
degrees between the hours of 500
a. m. and HOO p. m. regardless of
time of the year, in all instances
where the rent includes heat. A call
to the Police Department, MU.
1-5020 will bring an officer with
an official Thermometer to check if
the temperature falls below this
stipulation.
While the ordinance says nothing
of the hours between 11:OO p. m.
and 600 a. m. landlords should need
no law to govern them when tenn
peratures drop to low levels during
the night hours.

City Tax Rate
And Duplicate
Take Upswing

The City of East Cleveland's
new tax rate is $40 mills, an in
crease Of O.4O over the existing III
rate. Tuesday evening the City
Commission accepted the new rate
as set up by the taxing COM
mission.
Finance Director G.. T. Apthorp
explained the increase, stating that
the city's debt and permanent inn
provement rate is up 0.10 and the
operating cost is up 0.30; or
$4,000 and $4,000, respectively.
Most Of this operating increase
IS due to the enlarged police and
fire personnel, added during the
last half of 1867. The full impact
Of this expanded municipal serv-
ice is being reflected in the in
creased rate.
The municipality, as the school
board, has an upped duplicate. The
the city's new one of $97 900 900 is
up about $2,20O,000 due to the
100000 valuation in new real es-
tate and an $4,000 in public util-
tiles.
Under their previous duplicates
the overall tax rate collection this
year was 1872 mills.
The Commission accepted the
one bid for new three wheel
motorcycle. 1t was from Toms
Harley-Davidson Sales Co., 1920
st. Clair ave. for S1675 and a $50
allowance for the trade-in of the
old vehicle. This motorcycle is used
in parking meter enforcement.
One bid only was also received
for the sale of the 1854 Chevy sta
tion wagon that is no longer need
ed by the Electrical Department.
Markad Motors got it for 5000.
Disposal of the station wagon re-
duces the city's rolling stock by
that one vehicle.

Look For 1900 Pupils In Kirk And
Shaw High Schools In Year 1860

One of the problems facing To-
days educators is the increasing
enrolment I. and how to meet it.
East Cleveland is no exception, al
though the problem is not as acute
here as it is in many of the newer
suburbs. However, it is fact that
is being discussed and planned for
by the East Cleveland Board of
Education.
This years enrolment in the
schools is 5732, 175 more than last
school year. The peak increase is
on the Junior High School level.
This means that within the life of
he sought for renewal Of the A
school levy, this wave of students
will have, reached the more expen-
sive high school years.
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1957-10-24

Kirk Jr. High Schools current
enrolment is 1,241. Shaw High has
1145 pupils. Projecting the present
figures into the next five-year
period, the total enrolment of the
two schools is expected to be 2600
pupils. This means that space,
teachers, facilities, equipment and
class rooms must be ready for that
number of students.
Where is the money coming
from? The voters must decide. The
renewal of the IA mill levy, which
brings in one-fourth Of today's op-
Grating cost, is one answer. DR..
Korb, superintendent of schools has
pronounced the passage of this. levy

To satisfy the hungry appe-
tites Of Shaw High football fans
at home games takes a lot of
wieners, buns, coffee, chocolate,
candy apples, candy bars, pop corn,
and pop!
This year, the concession stands
are being jointly operated by
Shaw's Student Council and Shaw
PTA. Prime reason for this inno-
vation was that Shaw felt the
profits could be used for worthy
causes. PTA's share will be put in
the Fund to equip a new social
room, at Shaw High-something
badly needed.
With Shaw PTA Canteen Chair
man Paul W. Broer guiding the
venture, plus the assistance of
Student Council members headed
by Bob Vargo, president, the com
cession stands have done a land
office business all season.
But to handle the stands effici-
entity aud to see that huelisters
really hustle takes a lot of behind
ths-scenes work. That's where
Shaw PTA dads have been help
ing out-arranging stocks in ad-
vance, checking money, and scores
of other details.
We've had grand help from
Shaw Dads" says Burt Taylor,
1854 Garfield ave-, PTA Social
Room Chairman and generalissimo
of the concessions project, "but
we need more Dads to help us out
on the final two games. A few of
the Dads who have willingly given
of their time have yet to see much
of football game because the
work load has been handled by too
few fathers. So we're appealing to
at least 25 Dads to volunteer to
give us a helping hand. How about
it? I sure hope my phone rings
plenty! You can reach me at Ii.
1-1259."
Here's a challenge, Shaw Dads!
It's a worthy cause. The pay? A
lot of personal satisfaction and
fun!

Commissioners-absent from to-

not in a position to make specific

The reason. he said, was that
school construction needs are
contained in the general review

viewed by a special citizens
committee.
Senator Morse, warning that
his committee did not wish to
participate in any delay on
the matter of borrowing, asked

tator," said that employers were
asked to purchase $25 tickets for
the dinner and to list their
names in the souvenir program
for $50 or to take an ad for a
minimum of $50.
He said that the business
agents in soliciting employers
reminded them that Kralstein
negotiated labor contracts for
the bakers in New York. He
added that employers felt obliged
to cooperate because bakers
are very scarce in New York at
this time and the business agent
can take various bakers out of
the shops"
Tenczar also said that If a
business agent failed in his mis-
sion with the employer he would
go back to the union and a
team" of union officials would
call on the reluctant owner.
Removed From Post
Tenczar said he was removed
from his post. ostensibly for &C
cepting SIPS from a friend after
he had found a makery shop for
him to operate. But he made it
plain that his objections to the
Karlstein dinner and other fund
raising efforts by bakery union
officials was the real reason.
Mr.. Kennedy said that the
committee also would take up
these matters: The reported mis-
handling of union monies by a
Los Angeles Bakers local and
the Interrogation of James Cross,
international president of the
union.
Cross was named in testimony
yesterday as the recipient Of two
automobiles, a $6.5l5 Cadillac
and a $4,000 Buick, the gifts of
two Chicago Bakers locals which
have since merged.
Car Trading Cited
George Stuart. former vice
president of the international

March after being accused by
another union officer of misusing
Bakers funds. was listed as hav-
ing received two CadillacS as
gifts from the same Chicago
locals. He repeatedly bought a
new Chevrolet Corvette with
S5,575 he got by trading in" his
"old" Cadillac.
Stuart took the stand late in
the day and invoked the Fifth
Amendment on all questions
dealing with his finances. He
gave his name and said he lived
at $3.50 oregon avenue NV.
The former Bakers official said
it might tend to incriminate
him if he told the committee his
former occupation. He said he is

of spending more than $4,000
of union money for his own per-
sonal use, including OUTLAWS for

Plane Crash
Proves to Be
Timber Fire

BARSTOW. Calf, July 10
R.-The mystery of Clark
Notwithstanding an inten-
sive search for the survivors of
a plane that was supposed to
have crashed yesterday-ap-
parently was solved today by a
brief radio message from the
scene.
There was no airplane
crash" radioed officer A. M.
Smith of the California High
way Patrol to his headquarters
here. ut was only a timber
fire."
This was the only immediate
word on the strange situation
and left unexplained various
reports of charred wreckage and
flashed messages.
Earlier a helicopter pilot re-
ported by radio that he had
sighted wreckage, but it was so
charred that he could not tell
whether there were survivors or
what type of plane it was.
One puzzling aspect of the
case was the fact that a rescue
party struggled to the area
during a fierce electric storm
and was reported to have mes
saged with flashlights: There
are survivors help badly
needed"
There has been no futher
word from this ground party,
only the brief message from the
! highway patrol.
