Wizards Made
Classics in Clocks
BY GEORGE FLYNN

A prize in any collection Of
American antiques is a clock
made by the so-called Will
lard school of clockmakers.
The four Willard brothers
made only fine timepieceS.
The beauty of these clocks
is enhanced by their historic
cal importance, for the Will
lards brought house clocks
down in size, from the big,
expensive grandfather"
pieces to banjo, lighthouse,
shelf and tower clock sizes.
It was Simon Willard, one
Of the younger brothers who
developed the banjo clock, an
original masterpiece which
many collectors believe to be
the most graceful of all
American clocks.
Patented Banjo Clock
Simon in 1902 obtained a
patent. issued by James
Madison as Secretary of State
and signed by Thomas JEFF
ferson as President, covering
70 different improvements
for the banjo clock. the first
wall clock capable of operat-
ing seven days with no re-
winding. 1t was the first
accurate 7-day clock smaller
than the grandfather or the
condensed stairway clock,

Other clockmakers copied
Simon's designs, but few
produced clocks of equal

that are sound, to life that is
free, to a life of usefulness, to
a life that can be dependent up

Cleveland Heights And East
Cleveland Face Common Problem

mon sewer problem. One is
topography, and III this in
stance the many communities
in this particular area from
south to north are on "step
levels" so to speak, meaning
that Heights and East Cleve-
land being on the lower levels
take the brunt of the situation.
The second factor is new
developments which curb the
opportunity for surface water
TO run off in natural means,
forcing it instead into sewers
which provided ample service
when built many years ago,
but which cannot carry the
today's added loads. And water
knows no boundaries.
In another sewer problem,
also indirectly cause by
Heights, East Cleveland is
seeking TO find the answer to
handling storm water from a
recently completed 5 #. 6 in.
sewer at the Oakhill boundary
crossing, which empties into a
4 #. 6 in. sewer in East Cleve-
land, to flow into the run in
the ravine between Stanwood
and Taylor rds.

Man Is
Traffic Victim

Leonard r. Harston of 1865
Garden rd.. became Cleveland's s
sixth traffic fatality of 1858.
Mr.. Harston, 81, died in St. Vim
cent Charity Hospital 20 min
utes after being struck by an
east bound automobile on Ches-
ter ave-, near East 55th ST., at
1:10 a. m. Sunday, January 26.
The 27-year old East Side
driver told police the man
stepped backward into the path
of his car trying to avoid an
oncoming car. Witnesses told
police Harston was crossing
south to north against the traf-
fic light.
Harston, a welder for the
Republic Steel Corp, is sur
vived by his wife, Mary Roche
Harston. He was a World WaI

Help Heart
Victim Thus:

New treatments and under
standing of the common heart
attack have enabled physicians
to give their patients new hope
of recovery and rehabilita tion.
Mrs. Miles Phillips, 1876
Elwood ave-, chairman for the
1858 Heart Fund Drive, which
starts February 1st, reports
that anti-clotting drugs, special
diets and sometimes surgery
are effective in restoring heart
attack victims to normal lives.
To help a person suffering
d heart attack, Mrs. Phillips
releyed the following sugges-
tions from the Cleveland Area
Heart Society:
Call the doctor at once. Then
/. Help the person take a
comfortable position. usually
half-sitting ,half-lying. Laying
flat sometimes makes it diff
cult for the patient to breathe.
2 Do not attempt to lift or
carry the patient without the
doctors permission.
3. Loosen tight clothing such
as belts and collars.
4 See that the patient does
not become chilled. But do not
induce sweating with too many
blankets.
5. Do not give the patient
anything to drink without the
doctors advice.
When a clot (thrombus) cuts
off the blood supply to a Sec
tion of heart muscle, the result
is a heart attack. Physicians
call i. q coronary thrombosis
or coronary occlusion, or myo-
cardial infarction.
The usual symptoms are:
/. Severe painful sensation of
pressure under the breastbone,
often lasting for hours (mild
attacks are sometimes mistaken
for acute indigestion).
2. Sudden intense shortness
Of breath.
8. Sweating,
4. Loss of consciousness toe
casionally).
Even though the patient feels
we'll after the first week, he
must continue to rest TO give
the heart time to heal.
The time required for the
patient to get back on his feet
will depend on the extent of
the heart injury, the rate Of
healing, and whether or not
complicatios deve elop. AL
though medicines are helpful,
the patients cooperation and
understanding play a large part
in his recovery.
