In East Cleveland

he mentioned our name from
t he Windermere Methodist
Church pulpit. Nevertheless, he
did SO in acclaiming this news
papers support for the proposed
liquor bill now confronting the
senate in the Ohio assembly.
Now one of our favorite peo-
pie is leaving the East Cleveland
scene as the Ohio Area Bishop
has recalled the minister to his
staff.
We would like to express our
regret on his departure and that
of assistant pastor of the church,
Rev. Richard Clark.
It's a rough blow, to say the
least, to lose one minister, but
being without the services of
both capable clergymen is some
what staggering to the Winder-
mere Methodist members.
However, the congregation
can be consoled by the fact, both
men are going where they are
more sorely needed. And in the
long run, isn't that the purpose
of their calling?
THOUGHTS TO SHARE is
the subject of Poet Ross Connell
in his latest endeavor. 1t appears
that many local groups are TAX
ing note of his witty and whimsy
tadent for he is now lecturing to
various organizations in the
YOUNGEST (and perhaps the
quletest spectator at the Tuesday
morning zoning board meeting
was two-month old Alane Marie
Wiesler, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harry Wiesler, 1910 Noble
I'd. She sat in her grandmother's
lap during the long session and
didn't register one complaint.
In fact, she seemed somewhat
bored with the whole affair.

NEW REFRAINS to an old
tune might be forthcoming with
the adoption of a city flag by
East Cleveland officials. 1t
seems the name Barbara Allen
is not new to historical signifi-
canoe.
Barbara Allen here is the de-
signer of the city flag. Then
there's the Barbara Allen of the
18th century made famous in a
traditional folk song.
According to our colleague Al
Henderson of The SCOOP 1--WE
don't know what to do without
him when such information is
needed, the English and the
Scotch both claim title to the
original Barbara Allen ballad.
Be that as it may, there are
countless versions about the fair
maiden with some SO variations
found in Virginia alone.
Regardless of the vintage and
talents of the folk tune subject,
we'll take East Cleveland's Bar
bara Allen anytime.

INCIDENTALLY. we owe a.
vote of thanks to DR.. Homer c.
Alexander for his effort in
gathering the information and
quotes on Rev. Alexander. And
in case you did not know by
now there is no relationship
between the two except their
desire to serve their church and
community.
SuN-lIM. The East Cleve-
land Fraternal Order of Police,
Lodge No. Al, in conjunction
with the local FOPA are having
Fish Fry next Wednesday
starting at noon at the | & A !
Hall, 297l7 Euclid ave. If it's
anything like their affairs in the !
past it should be a jolly event. |
Note to Bill Hennie: We will
be there after putting the
LeadY ito bed" So make sure
there's some food left.
Sorry, Ladies; it's strictly a
sag affair.
NO ONE, but no one is left
out of the East Cleveland Y's
camping trips. This was evident
when one little tyke missed the
camp bus Monday morning.
TO the youngster, it was
near tragedy-but to YWCA ex-
ecutive director Sue Bieniasz,
there was ne need to push the
panic button. She drove the wor-
ried lad to the camp site. her
self-a distance of so miles.
This was all in days work
for Sue.
