Thirty-Fifth
Street


THIRTY-FIFTH STREET runs from the Delaware River south to River Road. The street picks up again east of the Pavonia railroad switching yard to Fairfax street. Once on the other side of Westfield Avenue, 35th Street runs for one block between Merriel and Rosedale Avenues. Interrupted again by what was up until recently railroad tracks, 35th Street starts once again on from the southern side of Rosedale Avenue to Federal Street, then on for three blocks to Highland Avenue at the Pennsauken border. As in all numbered streets in Camden, it is North 35th Street above Federal, and South 35th below.

Do you have a Thirty-Fifth Street memory or picture? Let me know by e-mail so it can be included here.

CRASH HURTS 2; DRIVER HELD

As the result of a collision between machines driven by Hugh W. Wall, 34, of 1199 North Thirty-sixth Street and Edward DuBuske, 38, of 132 Terhune Avenue, Greenville, early yesterday morning at a State Street intersection two persons were injured and Wall was arrested.

Injured are Stella Bucklew, 17, of 3113 Miller Street, Philadelphia and Michael O'Connor, 40, of 1136 North Thirty-fifth Street, here. Both suffered cuts on the face. Sergeant Edward Horne charged Wall with having fictitious license tags and he was held under $25 bail for a hearing before Police Court Judge Pancoast Thursday. Wall said that he bought a new car on October 22 and failed to have the registration tags changed at Trenton.

MATE SUES BEAUTICIAN,
CHARGES HOME NEGLECT

His wife spent her time arranging stylish coiffures for her neighbors while the household fell into a state of neglect declared Herbert G. Meeks, of 1017 North Thirty-fifth Street, before Advisory Master William B. Knight in Chancery Court today.

Mrs. Catherine Meeks, whose present address is Devereaux and Cottage streets, Philadelphia, finally opened a beauty shop of her own, informed her husband that their marriage was "washed up" and went her way, he said.

Meeks declared he tried to effect a reconciliation numerous times but to no avail. The couple was married in 1926 and separated in 1935. The man also testified that his wife went to dances three nights a week and sometimes didn't return home until the next day. Knight recommended a divorce decree.

I grew up on North 35th Street and attended Henry H. Davis Elementary School and Woodrow Wilson High School. My girlfriend lived on Merriel Avenue and we walked through the park on our way to Wilson every morning and afternoon. I loved the Dudley Grange library and was saddened to learn of the fire. It was such a quiet haven for young and old. I remember the beautiful stone exterior, the creaky stairs to the 2nd floor children's room, and the almost reverent quiet of the main floor reading room. The librarian sat perched high on a pedestal type desk and wore coke bottle thick glasses on a chain- but had a heart of gold. I became a librarian and lament the lovely sense of serenity and peace that you don't see in libraries too much.
