and His Court at Shaw Stadium
and each previous engagement has
attracted large crowd. Even those
who have seen this amazing four
man team perform are eager to
watch their antics again. The
King, Eddie Feigner, is one of the
most fabulous figures in the sports
world. His unending assortment
of pitches an deliveries are almost
miraculous and his three team
mates are softball stars in their
own right whose batting and field
ing feats are thrilling to watch
The East Cleveland Merchants,
who will oppose the talented quar-
tet, are one of the best softball
teams in the Cleveland area. They
currently own a 10-1 record in the
Hillcrest League and they boast
several hitters who should be able
to cope with some of the Kings
choice deliveries.
All in all, the entire program
stacks up as a truly fine bargain
bill which all East Clevelanders
and their entire families are urged
to attend. Tickets are now being
sold by every boy who plays on a
team sponsored by the ECCLI as
we'll as the managers, coaches and
league officials. The Amateur Day
program is a community effort to
which every local citizen should
give his support. We hope that
the parents Of the boys who play
baseball on the local diamonds will
see fit to purchase tickets as a
token Of their appreciation for the
many men who devote so much of
their time toward proper baseball
guidance for their children. Let's
get behind this worthwhile affair
everyone should benefit with a
minimum of effort and expense.

innate was $2,416,532.

ures was set for Monday, july

of Education offices.
Two designations, three retire
ments, and six new appointments
10 the city school system were an
nnounced the same night by Supt.
o. j. Korb.
Resigning to enter industry is
Walter Bandlow, machine shop
teacher at Shaw High School since
he first joined the faculty ranks
here in September, 1948. He will
enter the employ of Alcoa in the
Cleveland area.
Also resigning is Mrs. Donna
Harris, Chambers fourth grade in
structor since September, 1856.
Miss Estelle M. Linton, who
came to Rozelle School and the
local system in 1917, has rendered
her resignation. She taught fourth
grade pupils.
Miss Annitta Ripple of the home

Junior High School is another

member of the Shaw faculty in
1919, she later transferred to the

came here in 1929 and has been
teaching fourth grade.
Among the new teacher ap-
pointees is East Clevelander, Mrs.

August will find the hustle and
hustle of the busy Euclid-Superior
intersection augmented with paw
ing equipment and bulldozers.
Beginning August 1st. the
southwest corner Of the intersec-
tion will be widened to accommo.
GATE an additional traffic lane,
thus completely eliminating the
awkward jog motorists now use
i'll descending and ascending Su-
pe-ior hill.
This city improvement vas
clinched on Tuesday evening, July
2n0, when members of the East
Cleveland Commission at their
regular bi-monthly meeting in
City Hall, awarded the bid for the
street expansion to Dunlop and
Johnston for the sum of $4,000.
Besides the new roadway i'm
provement, a twelve-foot sidewalk
is to be installed.
Also involved in the project is
removal of a portion of the apart
ment building, situated on the
same southwest corner and under
taken at the owners expense.
Tearing down operations on the
apartment began early last month.
City officials timed the entire
Superior expansion program so
that its completion would precede
the opening of the fall school
term. Children cross the inter-
section daily on their way 20 and
from Superior school.
By finishing the task early In
September, down to removal of
the last barricade, all hazards to
pupils will be eliminated.
In other action last week the
commission passed an ordinance
authorizing sale of the city-owned
property on the edge of the new
skating rink site on Shaw ave. to
18 homeowners whose back yards
on Shawview ave. abut the recre-
ational development.
Parcels are each lot-wide and
21 feet deep. Bid price per parcel

to be set, the cost Of operating
the court alone will be $26,800,
compared to $12,7O0 for the old
part-time police court. Election of
the muny court judge takes place
at the November balloting.
The city estimates that during
1858 the new rink will bite off some
$10,600 in operational costs. Dur
ing the few months in 1857 when
it will be in operation the skating
project will run about $4,000.
An added burden, necessitating
added personnel, will be carried
by the fire department hereafter
during the winter months, when
its work week is reduced from 72
70 56 hours. For the police depart
ment a similar reduction in work
ing hours will be applicable on a
year-round basis, when it's time is
changed from "a hours to 10.
