SYMPHONY CONCERT North Shore Re.idenL Interested in Annual Musical Presentation Scheduled for February 17^ North shore residents .wiUJje in- terested in the forthcoming concert to be given on Thursday evening, Feb 17, in Northwestern university gymnasium, the twenty-fourth con- cert of the symphony orchestra ot the schookof music of the^ivemty. This will be the second concert ot the year given by the orchestra for the people of the north shore. The orchestra now has a member- shTp of approximately eighty mem- bers. It has been in existence for the nast ten years, and has become UnownTs Ine-of tfS best orchestras of its kind in the country. The rea- son for this was explained by Prof. Harold E. Knapp, director of the orchestra. "We live in a community," he said, "that is rather extraordinary^ the way of musical talent. Besides the students of the -sehool of music.-w^taAre-^sy-access to the best of professional talent in Chicago. Then we >boffMAff ranks to the civilians of the north shore. Unique "An orchestra composed of these three groups is a unique organiza- tion. However, we do not use a great deal of professional talent. But a large number of our best violinists are people who have no connection with the school of. music, but who had unusual training when they were children and now live here. We have the very best training that money could buy." ' . Professor Knapp will be assisted in the presentation of the program by Walter Allen Stults, basso, and Lewis Raridolph Blackman. violinist.

After many meetings and considerable controversy con- cerning the purchase of land in this sectionâ€"of theâ€"coimtry- suitable for golf course purposes; and during the course of much conjecture and spec- utaTion^fefativtrthereto, ^everaFtiri usual tracts in and adjacent to Lib- erty ville Were seriously considered.- a~ rectnt conference, however, which was incidentally marked by an atmosphere of finality and complete- ness, negotiations were practically completed wheregy the organizers of As a result of unusually mild weather throughout the country this winter, approximately 3,000,000 more passenger cars and trucks are in service than were being used a year ago, according to reports sent in to the travel and transport bureau or the B. F. Goodrich Rubber company. Many northern states which are usually snowbound during several months of the year have had only a few light snowfalls so far this winter and auto traffic-has never been im- peded. The result has been that thousands of motorists who former- ly stored their machines at the first sign of King Winter have kept them continuously in use. The best indication of the increas- ed use of autos is given by reports obtained by the Goodrich bureau from gasoline distributing companies in widely separated sections. The re- ports show that gasoline consump- tion this winter in northern states is atleastJ50 per cent greater than last year, many cities showing increases ranging as high as 400 or 500 per cent. The largest gains in gasoline con- sumption were shown by cities in northern Michigan and in states along the Canadian border which usually are snowbound from fall to spring. No section of the country reported an increase of less than 90 per cent. Reliable estimates placed the number of cars in use last winterâ€" which was unusually severeâ€"at 4,500,- 000. This year it can be conserv- atively estimated that at least 7,500,- 000 are in service. Part of the in- crease can be attributed to the larger number of cars owned, but the favor- able motoring weather is of" course the greatest factor. Tire manufacturers predict that this increased^ttse of cars will have an appreciable effect upon the deraartd for tires next spring, and that an ac- tual shortage may occur as a result.

Rand's usual stellar play- ing was in evidence. Smith and Boice kept the visiting forwards well under cover throughout withthe re- sult that many attacks were frustrated. ". Parker In Limelight The heavyweight combat was slow and uninteresting during the first ten minutes of play. In the second session the New Trier forward batteries opened, the score at half time being 14-3, In the second half the New Trierites lengthened their lead to a substantial margin and La Grange was unable to check the offensive. Varney and Parker scin- tillated in the more important tussle. Varney is creditecPwilhT five baskets. Parker, only made one basket but after Varney demonstrated that his ^ye for making free throws was nil he was called upon to take^theâ€"ad^ vantage of La Grange's continual rough tactics.
