Chief Weaver Reelected
Little League President

Harold J.. Nichols, to the board
of directors.
Big Issue
The Big Issue" of 1862 was
whether to continue with the
four team Colt League and
after a lengthy discussion, the
managers, coaches and the
ECLLI personnel voted, by 38-6,
to eliminate that league for
this year and add two teams to
the Pony League, by extending
the age limit to Is years of
age.
The reasons given for this
action was it has not been
practical, for many years and
in many ways, to have a four
team league. Work schedules Of
the boys, vacation interference
and other baseball interests
were cited.
Soft Ball
Plans by the East Cleveland
Recreation Department were
made to have these boys play
baseball, and Jim Marinelli off
cred to organize a soft-ball
league, to play in the evenings
at Shaw Field. Other sugges-
tions included an Independent
Colt League and scheduling
other suburbs teams.
And as President Weaver
concluded, ANY boy in East
Cleveland will be able to play
ball, if he really wants to, and
all of US in the ECLLI will see
to it that he does. and help out
in any way we can"

Dear Editor,
AS Of late have been following your series of
editorials regarding shopping in your neighbor-
hood stores
| think this topic cannot be stressed too much.
In fact in my own case didn't take the time to
read your first three stories, although remember
seeing them on the first page, week after week.
About the fourth time it appeared finally read
it to see what it was all about.
Reading it is one thing everyone should do.
And secondly, everyone should give it some serious
thought.
For as | see it, our equity in our homes may
depend directly on these neghborhood merchants
If we go to these big merchandise centers, some
distance away, for everything we need, instead
of to our local stores, these same stores will
slowly have to close, their owners having to take
up elsewhere. When these stores close and move
out these buildings will become vacant, and stay
vacant. AS witness, already. If one merchant can
not draw trade, then any other will not even try
to start up in dead area And when these
buildings remain empty, they will probably have
painted-up store fronts, which very unsightly
and reminiscent of ghost town. Then watch your
valuations go down.
So far, haven't said word about the con-
venience of these stores when you want quart
of milk, faucet washer, pair of gloves, etc. in
hurry And it's only short walk to these places
besides
hate to think of the time when a small hard
ware or delicatessen other store may not be
around and I'll have to go to these big stores
For then, with no competition, they could charge
whatever they wanted to and if you wanted the
item, you would have to pay the price. And think
the time is coming.
One more word of praise to the people respon-
sibe for these editorials, and | only wish that
the people who receive these fine articles could at
least, just take the time to read them and see
for themselves, what it's all about
Sincerely yours,
Albert Horvath

Kodiak 20. Gets First Dear Santa Letter This Week

Just when Postmaster William Lamme was getting material to- gether for this years Mail Early" campaign, one little patron jumped the gun on him and mailed one of the earliest letters to Santa Claus the local post office has ever re- ceived.
 The little girl wrote:
 Dear Santa:
 T would like a Barbie and Ken set and some clothes and case for Christmas. I would like walking doll.
 T would like a piano."
 Then the young patron made an envelope out of some writing pa per, put her return address on it and carefully addressed it to "Mr. Santa Claus, North Pole"
 But just like lot of adults, she forgot one thing. She forgot to put a stamp on it.
 Postmaster Lamme says he thinks because the young patron Is so early that Santa Claus won't mind paying postage due this time.
