A rough estimate of the num-
ber of youngsters of school age
living in the area is 130, but il
is not known how many Of these
attended parochial schools.
The main concern of East
Cleveland school officials will be
how the influx of pupils would
effect already crowded conditions
at Kirk. There is no problem an
ticipated about allowing the
Cleveland children to attend the
nearest elementary school which
would be Superior.

He defended the helmet and face

However, the popular coach added
that the face bar itself could be

Associa ton
He admitted the number of in
juries and fatalities was extremely
high but claimed statistics could be
interpreted many ways.
Another factor, according to Dire
bus, that could lead to more injuries,
is an inadequate coaching staff.
"At Shaw" he said, "we have ex-
cellent coaches who see that football
is taught properly. Many schools
don't follow this procedure
At any rate, Drebus proclaimed he
will need more substantial evidence
than has been presented to denounce
the present football helmet and face
guard.

to more injuries"
He suggested that improvement
of shoulder pads also be considered
as well as an overall study of per-
sonal equipment in general.
Cites Newspaper Stories
In mentioning the matter of
football equipment, Hamilton re-
ferred to several downtown news
paper articles that told of players
being carried off the field and also
claiming the helmet could be turned
into vicious weapon.
Drebus told The Leader that no
youngster had suffered serious

In response to Board of Education
concern over football injuries during
this gridiron season, Shaw Athletic
Director and Head Coach Don
Drebus came to the defense of the
controversial plastic helmet and
iron bar-type face guard.
The board Monday night had in
structed letter be sent to Shaw
Principal Wayne c. Blough express
ing concern over the increased num-
ber of fatalities and injuries suf-
fered in football throughout the
country this year.
Actually, the Cardina | s went
through the whole season without
any serious mishaps.
Board Member Charles Hamilton,
who brought up the matter, empha-

sized the note to Blough was not
meant to be critical but that it urged
the high school to take all steps
needed to prevent injuries.
Principals Act
Blough, who received the cores
pondence from the board yesterday,
reported that at the last meeting of
school principals in the Lake Erie
League it was decided to bring in
fluence on equipment makers to sur
vey the situation on helmets.
The Shaw principal stated it was
the opinion of the group the present
day helmet was responsible for the
increase in injuries.

"as the face bar is a great improve

Both visitors appeared i'm
pressed by the fact that pupils
attending the impaired hearing
classes here come from all over
the United States.
As Miss Kent said, "There's
an even greater story about the
devoted parents of these chill
dren. They have moved from all
over. at great expense to many
of them. to insure that their
children might have the oppor-
tunity to learn to speak and be
educated"
One family has even come
from as far away as a mission

school system, congenial and
Woodworking Bruce Holderbaum
finds his tasks many and varied.
His latest assignment, as per
command of the School Board,
is no exception as he is now out

The board gave Holderbaum
the job of determining how many
potential public school pupils
there would be in triangular

Lakeview Cemetery.
The action is a result Of board
members informally asserting to

promises more acts that are
compressed into d shorter perioc
Of time than in previous years.
The "streamlining" Of the
show has come about through
the elimination of a master OF
ceremonies and through reduc-
ton in both number and time al
lotted to judges.
This years show will have u
acts. Each will be introduced by
a sign displayed on an easel
much in the same manner Of
old-time VAUDEVILLE shows.
The performers, divided into
two age brackets, will compete
for prize trophies-three for top
winners in the age group up to
Is and three for those from IA
to 19. Judging the talent will be
Fred c. Tyler, jr., and Jack Allan
Bialosky.
Only one extra act has been
scheduled this year. 1t features
Jean Ann Edwards. a two-tlme
winner of first place honors In
previous Talent Shows. Miss Ed
wards now attending the Univer-
sity of Dayton, will offer a song
and dance number.
Hoping to follow in her sis
ter's footsteps this year is Joyce
Edwards, who will appear in one
of the acts scheduled tomorrow
night. She is competing in the
younger division.
The show will open with the
Shaw High Majorettes singing,
Another Op'ning Another
Show" Following this will come
a succession of individual and
group performers, including such
unusual attractions as a trampo-
line act. seXtet of drummers
from Kirk, and duo singing
songs in several different Ian
guages. There will also be a
black-light specially performed
by the Shaw High c h e e
Leaders.
General admission tickets, ay-
from kiwanis Club men,
bers, are 81. Part of the proceeds
from the show are earmarked
for lighting the sled run at For
est Hills Park. This project Is
in keeping with the clubs policy
of applying proceeds from the
Talent Show to community serv-
ice work among the boys and
girls of this area.

from getting together and forming sticky
sludge which can clog your engine.
Most premium oils use detergent addi-
tive to do the job. And they perform well.
But, like other additives, most detergents
contain metals and cause that old devil-ash.
Shells solution is to replace detergent
with remarkable new ingredient known as

Oddly enough, nobody yet knows exactly
how Alkaline works. But the proof of the
pudding is in the testing (see next page).
Engines stay far cleaner with new Shell
X-loo Premium. And they retain their
power better.
Note to compact car owners: Power loss
due to dirty, sticky oil and to combustion de-
posts may not be noticed so quickly in cars
with huge engines. But todays compact cars
can lose loper cent Of their total power from
engine deposits alone. Such serious power
loss is certainly apparent.
Today, you can go long way toward
avoiding this loss by keeping your engine

Trouble "A

All automobile engines manufacture acid.
This can do far more damage than friction.
1t can eat away at engine parts in much the
way stomach acid can cause ulcers Then
you're really in trouble.
One way to combat engine acid is to make
the oil alkaline. Many oils use this method.
But here's what happens.
The neutralizing effect Of alkaline in
evitably gets weaker and weaker as en-
gine acid eats up the alkalinity-tiH it
eventually stops working completely.
When this happens, your oil no longer
gives 20" the Gnti7acid protection that
your engine requires.

in new and better way.

All other premium motor oils still have

The trouble stems from the metallic ad-

These additives do what's expected Of
them, but with each stroke Of the piston,
they can leave tiny amount Of metallic
salts in the combustion chamber, where they
burn and form additive ash.
