Aid Pledged IjvFe mescals Face-Lifting rJlcQDB iB 5tr Temescal merchants have as- surances of assistance today from city, county and educational leaders in their efforts to revitalize their district in North Oakland. The pledges were made at a meeting of the Temescal Merchants Association vesterdav. i Jack of All Tirades A week or so ago Jimmy Hernandez, the Hayward auto dealer, fractured me telling about the terrible scarcity of Havana cigars. "But you can still get them," he said. "You fly to Miami and check into an ocean-front hotel.

You go to your room and open the window. "Then you wait until a hurricane comes along and blows in the tobacco leaves from Cuba." As I say, that was a week ago. Then last night Ronnie Graham, a very funny comedian, opened at the Hungry i and told how marijuana can be obtained. "You fly to Miami It was the same joke and I can't understand it.

Vice Mayor Felix Chidvo told the merchants that "we want you to tell us what you want to do with the district. Then we will try to help you out." He pointed out that this kind of neighborhood cooperation "is not new in Oakland." citing Montclair as one example. Alameda County Supervisor Emanuel P.
