recovery.
Incidentally, Linda's mother
has a heart-warming letter or
the inside pages Of this issue
thanking all those who came
to the family's assistance dur
ing this time of need.
OBSERVATION. Schoo
board meetings are becoming
more interesting all the time
Take the matter of heads of
school departments reporting
on their branch of education
to The officials. This year we
have seen Miss Norma Smith
expound on the physical fitness
program and Paul Hammer ex-
plain the business education
department.
It is amusing to note that
Miss Smith (head of girls phys
ical education) appeared ready
to slap q judo hold on anyone
who disagreed with her ideas
and Mr.. Hammer in his own
business-like way, presented
his report complete with chart,
statistics and curt data.
The general consensus is that
both gave excellent reports and
most certainly said what they
felt.
The next report will be on
reading, and we are anxious
to glimpse the personality
traits of the head of this de-
partment.
What we would hesitate to
observe is Coach Don Drebus
report on athletic activities. He
might "tackle" the subject too
vigorously.
WANTED. As you know a
weekly newspapers purpose is
to serve the community in a
manner the dailies cannot. We
take pride in printing all of
your club notices and personal
items. Especially with Thanks
giving next week many resi-
dents will be going out of
town or will have out of town
visitors. Let us know and we
will in turn take over the
chore Of the backyard gossiper.
TALENT SHOW. We urge
all those who can attend the
18th annual Kiwanis talent
show tomorrow night to do so.
We had a peek at a couple of
the acts and it looks like the
event is going to be a smash
hit.
ACTION. The community
will be a beehive of activity to-
night what with the Sarah
Shaw Box Social at Korb Gen.
ter and the The YMCA Fellow
ship dinner. 1t makes it rough
on a body-which one to attend.
Well we'll solve the problem
real easy. Calories be hanged
wen attend both of them.
WELCOME. We understand
the Continental Bank is OPEN
ing a branch soon in our town
at Euclid and Forest Hills blvd.
The new building and develop
ment will cost in the neighbor-
hood of $15O,0OO we here tell
If true, and we shall check it
out, it would be further proof
of the faith big business has in
this fair community.
BIG DEAL! We read where
someone downtown finally
came to the conclusion that the
Shaw football team is tops in
this area. This is news? We
could have told this person a
long time ago that the Cardin-
ais weer the greatest.
BOOK WEEK. Somewhere
we heard this was Book Week
and as such would like to pay
tribute to the East Cleveland
libraries. Like the anxious
statesmen, the young ladies
operating the branches are
eager to get a customer inside
their doors.
To do this, interesting pro-
Grams are constantly being
scheduled ranging from films
on hot-rod races to concerts
Needless to say these projects
are well worthwhile and q
great contribution to the res
idents.
However, we hope the ulti-
mate goal Of these programs is
achieved-that is getting the
public interested in books.
Along this line, we once saw
q sign that read:
"A person who doesn't read
il no better off than one who
