Chief Aims Tips AT Pedestrians

slippery hardness. Step care
fully, and don't insist on your
right of way.
Did you know that demolition
experts walk, but never run,
away from explosives after the
fuse is lit? This is to prevent
their stumbling and falling in
the danger zone. For/the same
reason, pedestrians should walk,
never run, across the street.
Always obey traffic signals
NOT only for your own protec-
ton, but for the good example
you give others who are watch
ing you.
The chief also appealed to
home owners to keep their side
walks clear of snow and spread
sand on icy spots.
"This is our responsibility to
those who pass by" he said.
"Most of them are people you
know, and you know you
wouldn't want anyone to fall
and be seriously hurt on your
sidewalk, through your ne
glect."

site.
Also as a result of commits
sion action, some employees in
the city can look forward to
being supplied with work uni
forms.
This is an apparent trend in
municipalities so that city
workers can more easily be i'd
entitled and take more pride in
their work.
City Manager G. T. Apthorp
also told the Commissioners
that the proposed waste trans
fer plant construction, is pro-
crossing and that revisions in
refuse collection should start
prior to March 1st.
Apthorp further suggested
that the city might begin col
lecting refuse from business
and commercial establishments
in East Cleveland at a nominal
fee.
In commenting on the unusu-
ally large amount Of snow in
December, Apthorp reported
that the heavy snow fall cost
the city around S25, 600 for that
month.
In a report Of statistics for
1862, the city manager told the
Commissioners that building
permits for last year totaled
S3,685, ,825: fire losses were ex-
tremely high, S137,680 as COM
pared to $31,440 in 1861; and
that since the appointment Of a
full-timc housing inspector in
February, 1861, to carry out.
inspections under the city's.
new housing code, all Of the
city's $50 apartments have been
inspected.
"Of these" Apthorp stated,
"551 have complied with all re-
quirements of the code as of
Dec. 31st.
An increase in total crime in
the city, reported Apthorp, was
due to increased petty crime
such as auto parts thefts, BIZ
cycle thefts, vandalism and
other petty larcenies.
Figures on property stolen
in 1862 include S43,459 for cars
stolen and 122 recovered auto
valued at S78,239,' he
said.
The report showed that auto
accidents involving injuries to
persons decreased from SO to
20 in 1862 although total ac-
cidents were somewhat higher. /
The one fatal accident in
962 involved a teen-aged boy
who lost control Of his car on
Terrace rd.. and was thrown
from his car after striking
utility pole and house.
