Denial Brings Writ

The City Of East Cleveland
has been served with a copy of
a petition for a writ Of man
damus filed in the Court of
Appeals to compel the city to
grant a building permit for a
supermarket on the Walworth
property. The hearing is set for
1880 a. M, May 14th. Stanley
Webster. city law director, will
represent the city.
Rejection of this appeal, filed
by Killeen Realty Co., as leasee,
was based on two important
factors and several lesser ones.
Main objection is what a single
supermarket (planned for the
site) would do to the already
congested traffic condition
along Euclid ave.; and, the fact
that the city's business front
occupancies are already two and
a-half times over the nationally
established ratio for cities of
10000 people.

Lives Safely 80 Years In Traffic
To Become Victim Of His Own Car
Condition good. +"

Condition good
This is the report late Tues
day from Huron Road Hospital
where Jack Baker, II, who has
had thousands of motor vehicles
safely pass him by during his
3S years traffic guard duty, is
a victim of a freak accident in
volving his own automobile.
Baker has a fractured ankle,
many body bruises and under
went immediate surgery for a
nearly severed ear.
The patrolman's car, hood up
and driver seat door open, was
parked in the driveway at his
home, 1873 Rutland ave-, NE.
Sunday, Baker was draining the
radiator, and to speed the ac-
ton, turned on the ignition.
The car rolled against low
stonewall along the drive,
bounced across the street, over
the curb and across the tree
lawn, throwing Baker onto the
pavement as it started circle
which took it back across the
street and around to the spot
where the stunned traffic guard
lay on the pavement. Baker was
caught up by the car and car
ried a few feet where the auto
was stopped by a tree, with
Baker pinned beneath it.
Two neighbors, Roger R.
Biegelman of 1160l Rutland,
and John w. Marteau of 1870
Rutland made vain attempt to
reach the emergency brake as
the auto circled by them. Then,
with the assistance of another
neighbor, Robert Connolly,
1870 Rutland, each with a
jack, the trio had lifted the
car by the time the police, sum-
moned by Mrs. Baker, reached
the scene. They did not disturb
the victim as he lay on the
street, leaving that to the
skilled hands of the police am
bulance crew.
Mr.. Baker is one Of the we'll

known members of the East
Cleveland Police Department.
For 25 years he safeguarded
traffic at the busy Euclid
Superior intersection. For the
past IS years he has stood
guard at the Euclid-Shaw and
Prospect intersection where
both Shaw High School and
Prospect Elementary pupil 5
cross. He had the Superior
pupils at the Superior Euclid
crossing.
Already the Baker mail is
about the heaviest in the hos
pital. Cards, letters and other
mementos of friendship are
coming in from school children,
from adults who remember him
as their school guard, and from
others who appreciate his traf-
fic protection services.
Chief of Police III. S. Weaver
rushed to the hospital upon re-
ceiving word of the freak ac-
cident, and remained there
many hours, until the victim
was finally in bed in his room.

Memorial popples which Will
be worn here on Poppy Day.
May 22nd. have been received
by East Cleveland Unit Of the
American Legion Auxiliary
from the veterans hospital at
Sandusky where they were

in profusion on the world war
battlefields and cemeteries in
France and Belgium Mrs.
George Kimpel, Auxiliary Pres
ident, explained. The World
War ! poem, I'm Flanders
Fields told the world about
these poppies, and soon after
that war the poppy became the
memorial flower for the war
dead throughout the English
speaking world.
Making the flowers provides
interesting and beneficial en-
ployment for thousands of vet
erans in hospitals and GONZALES
cent workrooms throughout the
country" continued Mrs. Kim
pei. "The Auxiliary provides the
materials and pays them for the
poppies they make. The work is
considered valuable as occupa-
tional therapy and also gives
the time patients the en-
couraging experience Of earning
money again.
DISABLED veterans OF three
wars. the two world wars and
the Korean conflict, made pop
pies for the Auxiliary this

Check Homes
For Possible
Fire Hazards

Springtime is housecleaning
time and a good time tC
check your home for fire
hazards.
From the fire-safety angle
Chief w. Lange suggests start
ing in the basement, where
many hazards exist and here
are a few suggestions:
RUBBISH - old magazines
and newspapers, furniture, ole
rags and other things are COM
bustibles. Get rid of them.
FURNACE - it's dangerous
when dirty. Have it cleaned
regularly. Don't put off neces-
sary repairs.
LIVING ROOM - your tele-
vision set, if placed too close
to wall, may become a fire
hazard. Never tinker with ii
and be careful not to cover up
the ventilating holes that dis
pose of accumulated heat.)
MISUSE OF ELECTRICITY
accounts for 30 per cent of all
fires in the homes of East
Clevelanders. Best check all
your electrical appliances, in
cluding irons, waffle irons. mix
ers, heaters, lamps, fans, radio
and other devices. Make sure
that the cords are in good con-
dition, that they bear the little
UL tag that denotes listing by
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc
MULTIPLE ATTACHMENT
PLUGS-a serious danger ir
overlooking circuits. All rooms
should have an adequate num-
ber of outlets to take care OF
all electrical appliances.
FLEXIBLE EXTENSION
CORDS-should be in the open
(none placed under rugs or over
hooks) and only IS ampere
fuses for your household light
ing circuits.
According to the National
Board of Fire Underwriters,
fire strikes an average of SOC
homes every day-about 100000
every year. The death toll is in
proportion; an everage of &c
fatalities a day, about 11,3OC
year.
Spring Clean-Up time, there.
fore, is an ideal opportunity tc
inspect homes from basement
to attic, getting rid Of all those
things that lead to fire.
