For a sequence of real random variables Cα-summability is shown under conditions on the variances of weighted sums, comprehending and sharpening strong laws of large numbers (SLLN) of Rademacher-Menchoff and Cramér-Leadbetter, respectively. Further an analogue of Kolmogorov's criterion for the SLNN is established for Eα-summability under moment and multiplicativity conditions of 4th order, which allows one to weaken Chow's independence assumption for identically distributed square integrable random variables. The simple tool is a composition of Cesàro-type and of Euler summability methods, respectively.
