Business will be looking up for \Vilmette's baseball nine next week. what with an engagement with the powerful Glencoe aggregation booked for Sunday afternoon and a clash with the Kenosha . Simmons outfit on the card for Wilmette Day, Wednesday, August 8. The locals have achieved a record of nine wins as against four setbacks in their encounters thus~ far this season and are hopeful of swelling the win column to more sizeable proportions. Sunday's assignment is nothing to be sneezed at since Glencoe has marshalled one of its strongest teams in recent years and is giving everybody along the line a severe argument. Game time is 3 o'clock at the Village Green west of the Howard school. Wilmette Day will find the locals determined to get on even terms with the Simmons industrial league entry who last Sunday administered a dose of whitewash to the locals in a game that, but for one inning in which Simmons scored three runs, was as merry a hurling duel as one would hope to witness. Wednesday's game will also be staged on the Village Green lot and represents one of the outstanding features of the Wilmette Day program. This table i· 2 7 in. high with 2·-iach top.
