Package Deal
For Sandusky
Shaw Game

Package ticket deals for the
annual Shaw-Sandusky foot
ball game at Sandusky, Sep
tember 26th will go on sale
Monday, September 22nd at the
Athletic Office, Shaw Tech
bldg. All reservations must be
made by noon on Wednesday,
September oath. No sales will
be made by phone.
The 1858 package will cost
Shaw fans less than any pre-
vious Sandusky trip due to the
fact that this year the trip
will be by Greyhound bus. In
cluding one reserved seat and
bus fare the package will cost
adults $4.75 and students $3.50.
There will be another advan-
tage also in the bus transpor-
tation, Mr.. Louis points out.
The buses will leave Shaw
High School at $50, later
hour than by train, and this
will mean that many fans can
be ready to go and root for
the Cards by 6:30 p. m.
Ten buses have been re-
served for this popular game
deal, with additional buses
available, if needed.
Game time is 900 p. M,
East Cleveland time. Sandusky
returned to Eastern Standard
Time earlier than the Cleve-
land area. BY East Cleveland
watches, the kickoff is at 500
p. m.
To accommodate the stu
dents, there will be one bus
each for each of three classes
at Shaw High, and student
tickets will indicate the bus
on which the purchaser will
travel.
This is the fifth time San
dusky and Shaw have tangled
on the gridiron. 1t is the Cards
third visit to Sandusky. Last
year there, the Cards rolled a
48-O score against their friend
ly rivals, 636 East Cleveland

Instrumental
Classes Open
In October

Band and Orchestra Train
ing Glasses are about to begin
in the East Cleveland City Ele-
mentary Schools. Pupils and
their parents are busy deciding
upon their choice of instru-
ment.
"Most parents do not pur-
chase an instrument at the out
Set" states S. Robert Fraser,
Director of Music. "The most
successful plan is to rent an
instrument from a reliable
music store for a period of 8
to 12 weeks, as a trial." he
continued.
Fraser warns that this is a
good plan only if private les
sons are taken in conjunction
with the renting Of the instru-
ment.
Class groups in band and or
chestra training are held in
each Of the six elementary
schools once week, during
school time, as a part Of the
regular curriculum. Classes
will begin the week of October
9th and it is imperative that
the pupil be equipped with an
instrument and ready to start
at that time.
Mr.. Kenneth Williams, Di-
rector of Instrumental Music
at Kirk Junior High, and Mr..
Fraser team up to teach these
classes. They will be available
for pupil-parent consultations
from now until the classes be-
gin, using the weekly schedule
printed below, for this pur-
pose.

Addams Quits
Polio
Chaiirmanship

After ten years Of devoted
service as chairman of the East
Cleveland National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis, Judge
Stanton Adams has submitted
his resignation to the Cuyahoga
County Chapter.
During these years Judge
Adams and his March of Moth
ers volunteers have raised
about $4,000 for the polio
program. Campaign expendi-
lures have always been met by
its chairman as further con-
tribution to this cause.
Recently the National Foun-
dation for Infantile Paralysis
was re-organized, with new
goals and a new name. This new
organization is to be known as
the National Foundation.
In letter being mailed this
weekend to the 35 team cap
tains Of the East Cleveland,
now nationally known, volun-
teer organization, Judge
Adams announces his resigna-
tion. The letter follows:
"You may wonder why | do
not contact you concerning
a polio campaign in the near
future. This is because the
National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis has now be-
come part Of the National
Foundation, united fund
raising agency for birth de-
fects, virus diseases, arthritis.
disorders of the central nerv-
Gus system, and polio.
1T is natural that there
should be some difference of
opinion concerning the plans
and future of the Polio Foun-
dation and the March of
Mothers. Some point out that,
since the March of Dimes in
Cuyahoga County has paid all
expenses incident to the care
of polio patients, future solici-
tors in this county are under
a moral obligation TO advise
anyone they approach that this
Foundation can extend very
limited aid in any of the new
health fields involved. These
people feel that the Founda-
tion should not enter health
fields already preempted by
other foundations or attempt
to perpetuate itself with its
highly elaborate professional
organization. They feel il
should limit itself to complet-
ing its job in the field Of polio.
reducing its budget and staff
to the extent that the Salk
vaccine has made possible.
"Others feel the public will
not be misled, but will under
stand that the time, energy
and money expended in build
ing up this great polio organi-
Zation should be utilized for
the service Of mankind not
only in terminating the polio
problem but in conquering new
diseases. Each of US must de-
eide personally.
Like you, l found work for
the polio campaigns a reward
ing experience and am proud
to have been a part of this
great crusade. And now, at the
advent of the changed pro-
gram, | feel l should retire as
the leader of the finest can
vassing organization in this
county. However, ! want you
to know that / shall always be
deeply grateful for your won
derful cooperation and loyalty

William Swaney's new gar
age at 1916 Bender ave., stays
where it is as far as the East
Cleveland Zoning Board is
concerned. The board sustained
the appellants plea following
lengthy hearing Tuesday af-
ternoon. AS things now stand,
however, the garage cannot be
used. The driveway is too mar
row.
Burt Cook, absentee owner of
the adjoining property, ter
race type rental, claims the
garage is less than the re-
quired one and one-half feet
from the property line. Since
the garage was built Mr.. Cook
has erected fence from about
midway of the drive to the
rear lot line. The fence cuts
inches off the width, making
it impossible to drive a car
between it and the house.
Through his attorney, John
J. Ever, Mr.. Swaney informed
the zoning board that the gar
age replaces a shed that was
on the same line as the garage;
that the garage is within the
limits according to the original
property stakes; and that
there is no adjacent building
nearer than approximately 80
feet.
When Mr.. Cook objected to
the boards decision, G. T. APP
thorp, Director of Finance,
presiding, stated that the city
adheres 99.44% to code, but
also uses it's discretion when
necessary. In this instance
they believed the garage had
been located "in good faith"
and could not see where NOV
ing it would help anyone.
Then Mr.. Apthorp started
to say something further, but
stopped with the comment,
you probably wouldn't like
to hear it."
The board was adjourning,
having heard several other
cases in the meanwhile, when
Mr.. and Mrs. Cook reap
pealed. Mr.. Cook wanted to
know what Mr.. Apthorp had in
mind-and did not say. He got
it. 1t was a suggestion that Mr..
Cook sell Mr.. Swaney one foot
of his property.
During the hearing, while
strenuously demanding the ga
rage be moved, Mr.. Cook added
a bit of confusion to the think
ing by saying he would not be
"fussy" about moving the ga
rage.
Mr.. Cook also asked for the
return of a survey he had pre-
sented during the hearing. -
was given to him.
Mr.. Ewers stated that the
has arranged to have
his property surveyed.
The board also:
Refused the request Of jose
phine Galyen, 1865 Rozelle ave.
to increase the occupancy at
that address from four to sew
en-. The board indicated how
ever, it could consider an ap-
peal for four rooms on a room
ing house basis. Sgt. McGill,
Rooming House Inspector, re-
ported he found a child under
IL years of age there, in viola
tion of the rooming house pro-
visions. October 31st was set
as the date for compliance.
Following an order from the
City Engineer to demolish a
storage building at 1909
l2917 Superior ave-, used as
storage for combustible mater
ials, the board granted permis-
sion to Ostendorf- Morris to re-
construct a cement block build

The Cardinals of Shaw
opened their season under new
head coach Don Drebus in q
blaze of glory as they smashed
Brush High 1873 last Friday
Collinwood's small and in
experienced Railroaders lost
their opener last week but in
doing so gained as much notice
as they would have if they had
defeated Warren. Warren was
ranked among the top three in
the state last fall. Onlookers
figured Collinwood would do
we'll to hold the score down. AS
it turned out Warren had to
hustle to squeeze through to
a TO decision.
Against Brush, the alert Car
dinals paved their own way to
victory, recovering four fumbles
by the Arc-lights in the first
half, plus a blocked punt.
Throughout most of the second
half, Coach Drebus had his
bench strength in action on the
gridiron.
Coach Charley Hofelich was
mighty pleased with his charges
following the Warren game but
he quickly issued a reminder
that Friday can be a different
story"
Last year the classy Car
dinals registered a 20-6 triumph
and gained the first leg on the
new Kiwanis Club Trophy. This
award is posted by the Kiwanis
Clubs of Northeast and East
Cleveland. Shaw retired the
original trophy two years ago
with three victories in four
years.
While football is the main
attraction at Shaw Stadium on
Friday, the half time show
promises to be better than ever.
Bands from both schools will
perform and the nations latest
craze-"hoola hoops" will be in
evidence in q special presen-
tation.
Not to be overlooked is the
fact that Shaw's ''barefooted
kicking whiz," Mario Gerhardt,
is back for more action. Last
week against Brush he not only
booted three extra points but
also added a 16-yard field goal
"a rarity in high school COM
