Village ViewsVolume 13, Issue 3March, 1981Terrace Park, OhioConcern Voiced Over TreesAs Cable TV Work NearsBy Shirley RohlfingRoss Lindell is a bit dazed about that 500 check asGrandma, Mrs. Carl Lindell, shows her pride.'Getting Involved'Nets Ross 500BULLETINA Goshen man broke into the home of Ken Lee, 409Washington Ave., in early morning March 14 but was stoppedby Milford police and the 2,000 in loot recovered. TV, stereoand other equipment had all been marked under the policeProject Identification project. Police said the man was ondrugs and driving a stolen car.The willingness of a 14year-old Terrace Park boy to"get involved" has helpedconvict two professional burglars - and made the highschool freshman 500 richer.Ross Lindell, a MariemontHigh school student, admitshe was "pretty nervous" whenpolice asked him to try toidentify the two men who hadstopped at his house to askfor directions the day a housein the neighborhood wasburglarized. But his positiveidentification of the pair andthe vehicle they had beendriving aided police in convicting the men of a series ofburglaries, including that ofthe home of his grandmother,Mrs. Carl Lindell.And because one of thehomes involved had a validHome Security Seal fromParch man. and Oyler, Realtors, Ross has become thefirst tn-state resident to receive a 500 reward fromP&o.P&O sales associates havedistributed more than 70,000of the red-and-black seals,which offer a 500 reward forinformation leading to thearrest and conviction of anyone illegally entering a homewith a seal, since the programwas started two years ago."We're very pleased to beable to reward this youngman for helping the policesolve these burglaries," William J. Parchman, P&O boardchairman said when he presented Ross with the check."The Home Security, Sealprogram was designed pre-cisely for these types situations - to thank alert,observant people for 'gettinginvolved' and helping to curbneighborhood crime."The P&O Home SecuritySeals, and a sheet of tips onburglary prevention, are available free of chargethrough any of P&O's 20suburban offices or by callingthe main office at 385-8800.With cable TV work scheduled to begin in the villageMay 18, village council at itsMarch meeting heard expressions of concerns abouttree damage caused by careless installation.A Garden Club delegation,led by Mary Malotke andincluding Norvita Hildbold,Faye Corey and MargaretWhitehouse, quoted warnings of tree damage by cablecrews from Cincinnati cityforester Steve Sandford,noted published complaintsfrom Wyoming and criticizedrecent installation work inIndian Hill.Council was asked specifically if and to what extentTerrace Park ordinances provided for tree protection; ifprotection provisions are orcould be included in the cablefranchise contract; wheretree ownership rests, andwhat rights residents have tocontrol placement of polesand guy wires, and damage toprivately-owned trees nearvillage streets.Mayor Dick Bowman responded that he and Council-Wood Fires CausingMore Chimney FiresFire Chief Pierce Matthewswarns that more widespreaduse of wood for home heatinghas resulted in a sharp increase in the number ofpotentially dangerous chimney fires.More than any other fuel,wood deposits a layer ofcreosote on the interiors ofchimneys. The buildup isgreatest when a chimney iscold, as with intermittent useof a fireplace in late fall orearly spring. A heavy depositcan be ignited by a hot firelater.While the chief noted thatchimney fires often burnthemselves out in a shorttime, he emphasized that thefire department should always be called even if theflames subside quickly.There is, he said, always thepossibility that the suddenburst of heat could start adangerous in-wall fire inareas adjacent to a chimney.Such a fire could go undetected until major damagehas been caused. There is,too, he said, the danger thatthe burst of hot gasses couldcarry hot embers to the roofsof affected and adjacentbuildings.Even if the fire is out whenfiremen arrive, he said, theywill carefully check the building to make sure that noconcealed fire has been started.After calling the fire department, he urged that householders close the fireplacedamper if possible, to reducethe flow of air to the blaze.If there is heavy use ofwood in a fireplace or stove, achimney should be cleanedevery year to reduce thehazard, the chief said.man Jack Van Wye and LesOverway have been workingon the problems, said a detailed report would be givenat the April meeting, and saidthat someone would be available to hear grievances whilethe cable crews were at work.He cited a letter from Warner-Amex, holder of the Terrace Park cable franchise,which said:"On some occasions it isnecessary to trim limbs fromtrees to prevent damage tothe cable. This is done onlywhen absolutely necessary.Whenever possible our workers will install plastic shieldson the cables to avoid thenecessity of extressive trimming."The cable installation schedule, reported by Overway, is:May 18-25, stringing supports; June 2-10, hangingcable; June 9-19, splicingcable; June 16-23, testing.Sales and connections to(Continued on P. 3)So What's Afoot?Mail carriers are doinga lot of walking again inTerrace Park.As a conservation measure, the carriers are parking their vehicles hereand there in the morebuilt-up portions of thevillage and delivering toadjacent areas on footinstead of riding fromdoor to door."It's working out reallywell," said PostmasterJim Simonton. "Alreadyour gasoline use has beencut by three-fourths."More ScoutsPromotedJoe Powell has won therank of First Class Scout inTerrace Park's Boy ScoutTroop 286 as the troop continues a new surge of activity.

Villagers Help By Telephone Often It Just Means ListeningBy Jeanne Sanker"Help Is As Close As theTelephone - 791-HOPE."That is the motto and phonenumber of Contact-QueenCity, Cincinnati's 24-hourChristian telephone ministry,started in 1973. It is the localbranch of LIFELINE lNTERNATIONAL, established in1966 in Sydney, Australia,under the leadership of Dr.Alan Walker.Many Terrace Park residents have served as volunteer listeners in this programwhich is growing each year.Current volunteers include:Sandy Caswell, Ann Konold,Carolyn Konold, Barbara Self,and Bunny Proctor, who isalso on the Board of Directors. Both Carolyn Konoldand Bunny Proctor have beenregular participants since theinception of the program.Cincinnati was the 49thContact center in the UnitedStates. There are now centersin 100 communities covering130 calling areas. All have thesame purpose: to provide 24hour a day Christian telephone help to troubled people. Contact centers offerreferral, emergency assistance, crisis intervention,someone who will listen andunderstand, or perhaps justbe a listening friend in themiddle of the night.ALTHOUGH ONLY ineight-year existence, the program has added service forthe deaf, begun in 1974, withteletypewriters (TTY) providing 24-hour help for thoseonce not able to use thetelephone.In 1979, Dial-A-Prayer inCincinnati added the Contactnumber as a referral forChristian help and many havereceived support and assurance they might not haveotherwise.A support service to thosewho recently widowed wasbegun in April, 1980. Thenumber is 984-6837.Contact also began offering training based on skillsused successfully on thecrisis line. The course, knownas "Amity" (friendship), hasbeen taught to chaplains atGeneral Hospital and to Hospice volunteers, as well as tomany church groups.Calls pour in by the thousands. In Cincinnati alonethere were 49,927 calls lastyear - 13,370 crisis calls,13,086 incoming calls needing answers or referrals,23,632 outgoing calls for TTY,165 for the widowed personservice. Thirty percent of thecalls were made because ofloneliness or grief, 18% weremental or emotional, 8% sexual, 8% marital problems, 6%requesting prayer or of areligious nature.All the work of ContactQueen City is done by volunteers with the exception of apart-time professional director and a part-time secretary. The program is fundedthrough private gifts anddonations and by churchmission gifts. Last year'sindividual donations totalled 10,800, with various groupsand churches giving 9,000.The budget for 1981 is 25,000. There is a 12-member board of directors, allworking members for Contact.TRAINING FOR the Teletypewriter program (TTY) isoffered several times a yearand requires two trainingsessions, approximately sixhours of training. These volunteers then fill at least twoshifts a month. They aretrained in helping the deafcommunicate with the speaking world in the use of theteletypewriter, communication skills, and understandingthe unique needs of the deaf.Telephone workers are expected to work a minimum oftwo four-hour periods permonth.

The commission isto be a regulatory body ofrepresentatives from manysurrounding communities todeal in strength with localcable programming. Eventualfunding will come from a 2%franchise fee available fromWarner-Amex when hookups are completed.The ordinance passed withthe stipulation that TerracePark pledge only if othercommunities also pledge seedmoney. In addition to the 2%fee available for the commission, the village will receive a 3% franchise fee.Citing a continuing, seriouslitter problem, especially along Wooster Pike, the hikingareas, and sports fields, Overway noted that the OhioDepartment of Natural Resources has funds to combatthis problem, and he proposed making an applicationfor aid.
