Livonia in New
,Operating
Division 1 Bell
Livonia is one of 46 exchanges
included in a new operating di-
vision of the Michigan Bell Tele-
phone Company, formation of
which was announced today by
Ben R. Marsh, vice-president and
general manager.
Headquarters of the new, East-
ern Division, which becomes
operative Jan. 1, will be in the
Boulevard Building in Detroit
with three district offices at
Pontiac, Ann Arbor, and Royal
Oak. The division will have more
than 3,000 employees. Nearly 175,-
COG telephones are in service in
the territory.
Chief officials ,vill be: James
F. Healy, division commerc ial
superintendent, now on a similar
post with the company's Southern
Division at Grand Rapids; Har-
old L. Packer, division traffic
superintendent, n o w g e n e r al
supervisor of traffic at Detroit;
and Kenneth W. Thompson, divi-
sion plant superintendent, now on
special assignment to the general
plant manager at Detroit.
Paul G. Leslie, commercial
superintendent of the 'Central
Division at Saginaw, "rill succeed
Hea y at Grand Rapids. Louis
Conroy, west district commercial
superintendent at Detroit, suc-
ceeds Leslie at Saginaw.
The Eastern Division will be
comprised of exchanges that are
now in the Detroit, Central, or
Southern divisions. Marsh , said
creation of the new -division was
brought about by the rapid tele-
phone growth in the Detroit sub-

efficient operation is expected by
confining the Detroit Division to
that exchange while forming a
new unit out of the territory hav-
ing a community of interest with
Detroit.

fifth division. he Northern Divi-
sion, with headquarters at Meno-
minee, covers the company's ter-
ritory in the Upper Peninsula.

THE DAY THAT IS THE DAY ... If you fMI out of bed, break a
mirror, lose on the horses, fall down a well, walk into an open door,
forget to turn off the gas—you have a reason—blame it on Friday,
December 13th. This is the day in which anything that happens—
if it is unlucky—can be blamed on that day. 'Some say that the
"unluckiness" of Friday, the 13th, had its origin in the Bible: Friday
was the day'of the Last Supper, and the number 13 refers to Christ
and his 12 apostles.

A long -needed institution for
greater cancer research work in
the Detroit Area was brought a
step .nearer realization with the
laying of the cornerstone at a
new home for the Detroit Insti-
tute of Cancer Research at John
R and Hancock Streets. The corn-
erstone ceremony took place last
week. Present plans call for com-
pletion of the building in time
for occupancy next spring.
In the cornerstone was placed a
metal box containing the names
of the officers of the Southeastern
Michigan Division of the Ameri-
can Cancer Society, which will
have supervision over the Cancer
Institute.
Other names placed in the box
were those of volunteer workers
who have rendered outstanding
service to the Society, and officers
of the Variety Club and the Mo-
tion Picture Exhibitors Associa-
tion whose help in raising funds
last spring played such a vital
part in the present expansion of
the Cancer Society activities
Among those present at the
ceremony were John J. O'Brien,
vice-president of the American
Cancer Society and a member
of the board of the Cancer Insti-
tute; Dr. Harvey M. Merker, exe-
cutive of the Parke -Davis Com-
pany and vice-president of the
Detroit Institute of Cancer Re-
search; Dr. Bruce H. Douglas,
-head of the Detroit Department
of Health, and Dr. William S.
Murray, executive director of the
Cancer Cociety, which has tem-
porary headquarters in the Red
Cross Building at 153 East Eliza -
,beth Street, Detroit.
The Cancer Society's new build-
ing will have two stories and a
basement each 80 feet wide by
170 feet long. It will be of fire-
proof construction and will be
faced with Indiana limstone. Ro-
bert J. West is the architect.
The first floor will include a
receiving room, serving room,
looby, administrative office, ap-
pointment clerks' office, doctors'
room, and a large auditorium, and
a store room. On the second
floor will be 14 laboratories, an
histology room, a directors' office
and a store room, Service equip-
ment will occupy most of the
basement.
The Cancer Society is drawing
up plans for an intensified edu-
cational campaign to combat the
growing toil of cancer in Detroit
and Southeastern Michigan. The
work will be carried on in fac-
tories, offices, and stores, as well
as among housewives and chil-
dren.
The fatalities from cancer in
Detroit last year reached 1,942,
besides several hundred addition-
al deaths in the suburban areas.
Medical authorities declare that
one-third of those lives could have
been saved could the malignancy
have been detected in its early
stages and treatment begun in
time. A total of over 175,000 per-
sons is expected to die of cancer
in the United States this year.

Hi kids! The seniors had quite
a nice turnout to their Prom last
Friday evening at the high school
gymnasium. Their decorations
were very elaborate, their theme
being `Fairy Tales.' At intermis-
sion, the seniors had four profes-
sional dancers to entertain. There
were so many people there from
Livonia and the whereabouts that
I couldn't possibly have seen seen
them all. After the Prom, some
of the people went to Hillsides,
some to other places, and some
went home.
The staff of the `Pilgrim Prints',
the Plymouth High School news-
paper, went to the eleventh an-

More Library Patrons in- Plymouth
Than There Are Homes --
Library Has Unusual Growth
Plymouth, a city that can lay claim to nearly 1400 homes, has
the unusual distinction, according to a check of records just made
at the Plymouth library, of having more library patrons than it has
homes.
Librarian Ada Murray stated yesterday that the check showed
1599 active cards, plus 151 additional cards that were in transit to
" the main library, but which are cards in constant use. This ma- es
a total of nearly 1750 regular users of the Plymouth library who live
within the city limits of Plymouth.
The townships of. Plymouth and Livonia have 1139 regular users
of the Plymouth library and there are 150 residents of Canton, Nan-
kin and the south end of Northville townships who are regular
patrons of the Plymouth library.
The total shows mora than 3030 regular patrons of the Plym-
outh library. if a count was made of the casual users, many hun-
dreds more could be added to that total.
Lihrarians believe that the new ideal location of the library
and its much more convenient arrangements are largely responsible
for the increased use of its facilities.
Those familiar with library work, say that the Plymouth record
is a positive index and compliment to the intelligence of residents
of Plymouth and vicinity.

Petitions Board
Change to M-2
Asks Classification
Livonia's Township Board met
at the Township Hall Monday,
December 2 to hold their regular
monthly meeting.
A petition signed by 33 home
owners on Terrance, Sunnydale,
Middlebelt Road, Broadmoor,
Alexander and Harrison Road
was submitted to the Board by
Syd Weinberg to change the clas-
sification of this area from an
AG -1-C classification to an M-2
(Heavy Industry.)
The cat,e concerned deals with
the Zoning Board of Appeal's
order to Mr. Weinberg, made in
October, to remove the addition
to
to his stables which was made by
moving a nearby structure and
attaching it to an already existing
building. This is a non -conform-
ing use and according to the Zon-
ing Ordiance. "Any such non -con-
forming building or structure
may be maintained and repaired
during this period of grace, pro-
vided there are no structural
change except those required by
law or ordinance or required for
safety and provided there shall

formance."
If this change in classification
is made the order would not stand
"(d) all other uses not prohibited
by law or other ordinances and
not specificially permitted in other
districts." The petition was re-
ferred to the Zoning Board for
action.
J. E. Potter of 342335 W. Seven
Mile Road was granted permis-
sion to store automobiles in his
barns and garages.
Wilma and Arthur Walker of
17930 Farmington Road petition-
ed to change the classification of
their ten acre farm, at 17930
Farmington Road, from an AG -1-
B to AG -2-i3 classification in
order to build a barn to house
more horses. This also is a non-
conforming use and the classifica-1
tion would change the farm size
from five to ten acres. The peti-
tion was referred to Zoning Board.
Resolutions were adopted by
the Board to sent letters of sym-
pathy to both the William P.
Fenske and Levi Clemens fam-
ilies and also to make the resolu-
tions part of the official minutes
of the township.

Many Stores To
Open Evenings
For Shoppers
For the accornodations of .the
thousands of Christmas shoppers
who find it difficult to come into
Plymouth to do their Christmas
shopping during the day time,
nearly all of the stores of Plym-
outh have announced that their
stores will be open evenings,
beginning on Friday, December
13.
They will remain open until
9 o'clock each night, except
Christmas evening, when nearly
all of the stores will close at 6
o'clock.
A committee of the merchants
has consulted with the local re-
tailers and the stores that will
remain open evenings to accomo-
date late shoppers will make an-
nouncements as to their hours in
their advertisements next week.
Members of the committee state
that they have found it greatly to
the advantage of large numbers
of Christmas shoppers by re-
maining open for a period :pre-
vious to Christmas.

James Warren Family
Leaves Cooper District
On the regular Boy Scout meet-
ing night at the Cooper School,
the Boy Scouts, Senior Scouts,
and Girl Scouts put on a farewell
and thank you supper for Mr.
James Warren who has acted or
the Scout Committee for several
years, Mr. Warren has given much
time to the development of the
Joy Garden Scouts and has help-
ed in nearly all social activities
where help was needed. Taking
the Boy Scouts to summer camps,
helping to prepare camps, selec-
tion of proper foods, and seeing
the boys had a good time will be
missed by all men of the Com-
mittee and mostly by the boys
themselves.
Mr. and Mrs. Warren and their
son Glenn have left the Cooper
School District to reside in Owos-
so, Michigan, where Mr. Warren
will go into business in which, we
know, the people of Owosso will
get a square deal, and also a good
neighbor and citizen.
When you see Mr. Warren in
Owosso ask him to show you the
pencil that ' the Boy Scouts pre-
sented to him at the farewell
supper. Glenn Warren who was
with the Joy Garden Troop was
presented a flashlight to keep his
way bright and, clear in his new
surroundings.
The farewell supper was follow-
ed by singing many favorite songs
b.y the group.
Good luck to you, Mr. and Mrs.
Warren and son Glenn. We hope
Owosso likes you as we know
you.

"Tow'd It Start?"
Will Your Home Burn
On Christmas Day?
Will yours be one of the hun-
dreds of homes which will be
destroyed by fire during the com-
ing holiday season?
Will your holiday decorations
and Christmas gifts be turned in -
'o ashes?
Will your loved ones be among
.hose burned to death?
Every year at this time a
Jlague of fires rages up and down
'he country.
Many of these„ fires are the
,result of hazards which exist
only during the holiday season:
of carelessness that would not be
olerated at any other time.
In a little country school house
n Oklahoma, where 150 people
xere crowded in for a Christmas
oa.rty, candles ignited the Christ-
nas tree. There was only one
exit. Windows were locked. Thirty
six celebrators were killed in
he panic or left behind to burn
io death when the crowd stamp-
ed.
In a fashionable club in Ala,
oama, ladies gathered for a gay
party. Six of them were burned
o death and several others in-
ured when someone struck a
Match in their midst and ignited
-:heir cotton trimmed costumes.
In a large hotel in New Jersey,
our people were killed when a
1hristmas tree in the lobby was
gnited by a spark from an elec-
�ric train.
A thousand Christmas trees
ourn in as many homes each
-year. Hundreds of fires start from
Christmas lighting. Flammable
decorations threaten every place
-
-vhere they are used. Discarded
'.wrappings increase the number
of fires.
If ,you would escape and have
-hose dear to ,you escape the
calamity of a holiday fire follow
;he simple safety rules as set
north in next week's issue of the
Lavonian.
In Colorado Springs, Olive Mae
,1/Iulica fell down a manhole, suf-
fered mirror injuries, refused to
sue, asked only for a new pair
of nylons.

"M and D" Restaurant
Broken Into Last Sunday
The "M and D" Restaurant
located on Eight Mile and Grand
River was broken into last Sun-
day evening. The pin ball ma-
chine was damaged and the juke
box broken into.
Youngsters evidently were mak-
ing a party of it as cakes ice
cream and chocolate milk were
consumed unknown to the gas
station attendenls who were on
duty next door.
Entrance was gained by break-
ing the window in the rear door
and the loss was estimated to be
about $200.00.
The Union Equipment Com-
pany, Grand River near Farming-
ton wes entered some time last
month by a trio of armed men.
The bookkeeper Mrs. Arthur
Mann of Rensellar was tied to a
chair while the men searched
for loot. She reports. "They were
very disappointed in finding no-
thing of value to them, but they
were gentlemanly towards me,
though I was very scared." The
men have not been captured as
yet and Mrs. Mann is just now
recovering from shock.
