John H. Ponko and Shirley G. Myers Shift Locations; 'Bob' Has New Home.

The sale of the former J. H. Maloney garage at 103 north Rath avenue by J. G. Gordon to Richard Cater will bring about relocation in the city of two car agencies and an auto laundry.

Cadillac Auto Service, the Hudson-Essex car agency and Shirley G. Myers are involved in the changes to take place.

"Bob" Cater, proprietor of the Cadillac Auto Service, will move his headquarters from 511 south James street to the building purchased by his father, now occupied by Hudson-Essex agency.

John H. Ponko, proprietor of Hudson-Essex agency, announces he has obtained a lease from Arthur Nordine to the garage building occupied by Dodge Bros. Sales & Service, operated by Shirley G. Myers.

Mr. Myers will move his agency from its present location adjacent the A. E. Nordine grocery to the city building at 105 north Rath avenue, which is being used as a storeroom for city equipment.

All changes are expected to take place this week.

"Bob" Cater will remodel the building purchased by his father from Mr. Gordon and will resume operations as a general garage and auto laundry.

"I've wanted this location since I moved to south James street," said Bob Cater. "Now I'm happy."

Mr. Myers will take over the city building on a rental basis and expects to have the interior decorated.
