the East Cleveland fire de-
partment will soon embark or
its 10th annual home fire in

Over the years." says Fire

gratifying results in the reduc.
tion Of fires"
He added that with the co.
Operation of East Cleveland

tial hazards will be eliminated
Chief Lange hopes that all
residents check their homes for
fire hazards.
at will give us much salts
faction, if when the fireman
calls at your home, he finds all
things of a hazardous nature
have been eliminated" he said.
The program will start in
about three weeks and continue
until the entire city has been
covered.
Following is list of some

checked periodically.
Portable heaters not located
or maintained properly; clothes,
curtains or furniture near
stoves. heaters or fireplaces
and chimneys not cleaned or

The case Of the shrunken stol
sign might never reach the
heights Of the Scopes trial but
it is causing some mutterings
amongst the local legal set.
1t all started when Conrad
Book of 447 East 148th ST., was
charged with going through a
stop sign at the intersection of
East 142nd ST., and Alder rd.,
May 81.
Through his lawyer, James
M. DeVinne, Book claims he
chad no duty to stop because
the sign in question was less
than the required height as
specified by state law"
According to Attorney De-
Winnie the law requires all stop
signs to have a height of seven
feet from the ground to its
lower edge.

Here are some of the reasons
why:
Drinking and driving is q
death potion. A special study of
1859 La bor Day weekend
fatalities disclosed that 4S pei
cent of these deaths involved a
drinking driver.
The social drinker" is a
greater menace on the streets
and highways than is the stag
gering drunk.
Even the driving ability of a
habitual drinker is impaired
about 80 per cent after only
three or four drinks.
Booze Not a Stimulant"
About one hour is required to
eliminate the effects of one
drink. Alcohol is not a stimu-
liant. On the contrary, 1t is
medically depressant, slowing

Judge Stanton Adams is
hearing the case and agrees to
this fact-but he points out the
perpendicular of the sign is in
cidental if it "is in proper posi-
tion and sufficiently legible to
be seen by an ordinarily OBJ
servant person"
In visit to the spot with De-
Vinne, Judge Addams ex-
pressed the view that although
the sign was two and a half
feet below the specified height,
it was in his mind, in proper
position and sufficiently legible.
The judge has given Books
attorney a week to file a brief
on this, but has stated he will
stick by his view unless DeVin-
ne can come up with a good
argument.
