One of the veterans of many bowling wars, Herb Simon, topped uiii league with a 584 series. Herb's series was good, but his team was nosed out by three pins. Vernon Knox showed a lot of improvement with his 193 - 200 - 136 -« 529 series. .Ladies'League Ag«ee Freund's 517 series anil 219 game stands out as the best'in the Palace Sorority. Kay Brefeld was hitting 'em on the nose and rolled up a 495 series. Matches were plenty close. McHenry Lumber took Wattles Drugs--only five pins. Whoops! Almost missed one. Lil Krause scattered the pins for t 513 series. I \ ••r City League Schlosser chopped wood to a 212 tune in the third game and came through with high for the week--562.

OIKL SCOUTS Monday evening, February 26, 1940, we met in Miss Althoff's room with only two of our number absent. Our meetings have been very well attended lately. . The first thing that was discussed was the way we handed in our, tests. Miss Althoff told us again in what form tests were to be handed in. Some of the girls hand in tests incomplete. That makes it doubly hard to check them. Girls, a last reminder, if you have any tests to pass, be sure to have all of the requirements done, written in ink. and names placed on them. I think that will help Miss Althoff and Miss Bauer very much. We had quite a time deciding when we would get our badges. After much discussion, we came to the conclusion that we wanted our badges as soon as we passed the test. Some few thought we should have a meeting set aside for giving out awards but the majority decided against that. Next Tuesday an order for badges and other equipment is being sent. If any girl desires to get anything she must place her order before that time. Two months have gone by since our last Program Committee Chairman election. We elected a new Program Committee chairman. The chairman is Shirley Patzke. She chose as her two assistants, Lucille Nickels and Betty Edstrom. These three will hold office for the two months of March and A mil. They will meet with Miss Althoff and Miss Bauer Friday evening. Remember to hand in your meeting suggestions to them before that time. You will remember a few weeks aco we learned a new singing game, "Turn the Glasses Over." We played it again and had an exciting time. We also learned another new singing game, "Duck of the Meadow." The balance of our meeting was spent practicing this new game. At the close of our meeting we sang "Fare-Thee-Well" and "Taps." Wish vou luck! GERVAISE BELLING, Scribe. J. O.

In the past ten weeks it has played to approximately 100,000 persons, an attendance representing the capacity limits of the Harris theatre where it is expected to remain for weeks to come. No play in recent years has attained wider popularity than "The Man Who Came To Dinner." Written by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman, the pair of wits responsible for the Pulitzer Prize winning comedy, "You Can't Take It With You," and produced by Sam H. Harris, it became a hit of such magnitude in New York that a Chicago company had to be Organized to satisfy the clamor to see it in the Middle West. This comnany, headed by the gifted Clifton Webb duplicated the Manhattan triumph,' 'and only a week or so ago still anoth-T rr company was sent to the Pacific Coast with Alexander Woollcott in^>l the part originally written for and about himself. "The Man Who Came To Dinner"; lias been hailed by critics as the fun- "niest play in years, and the fact that audiences are swarming to see it is proof that they arp right. Sheridan Whiteside, a world-famous lecturer, slips on a niece of ice and is confined to a small middle-western household with an injured hip. Despite his injury he carries on his multitudinous duties even though he turns everything and everyone in the house uppidedown. Famous friends nhone him from as far off as Egynt; Hollywood celebrities, such as Noel Coward, Harpo Marx and others, dash in to see him between trains; while old cronies like Admiral Byrd. William Beebe and the Khedive of Egypt send him gifts of live penguins, an octopus and a golden mummy case to wile away his hours. There is a splendid love story that hofds the play together, but it is the laughter aroused from curtain to curtain that makes "The Man Who Came To Dinner" tht •'must" play of the year. ^PICMM6 OFFJftr SMRES--frSKttu JoHN BELL, cf Wtncna Ktth., font«3N£ up the sM&m CAFE TtAM - He--Cuffs on men's trousers are going out of style.

HOPF STAGE TORRID CAMPAIGN RACE The t#n itepublican and two Demo- j cratic candidates for state representa-' tives from the Eighth Senatorial dis-! trict were slightly hampered Monday j by snowbound roads from speeding up; their campaigns in Lake, McHenry and Boone counties for the April 9 smiling • Primary. " I two Don't Mind Her Uh# .professor's secretary saw a magnificent blonde carrying some papers enter the office sweetly. ' 1 Democratic candidates, "Listen, you," snarled the jealous j Rep. Thomas A. Bolger of McHenry secretary, "If you try to muscle in lam^Jack H. Hoff of Waukegan, both on my territory I'll plant you ' seeking one nomination certified by among the potatoes." "Oh, don't mind me," answered the oth&r. "I'm only the professor's wife." Visibility Limited Father--I'm surprised that you should become infatuated with that girl: Why, you should have been able to read her like a book. Son--Well, you see, Dad, the light wag rather low. Real Realism Artist Scram--This is my latest picture, "Builders at Work." It is very realistic. Visitor--But they aren't at work. Artist Scram--I know. That's the realism. .Co-operative Mrs. -- It's scandalous for that farmer to charge us $10 for towing the car only three or four miles. Mr.--Never mind, dear. He's earning it; I've got the brakes on. Fresh Air Needed "Hello, John," said the genial vicar, "out for a stroll?" "Aye. Ye can do with a mouthful of fresh air after bein' cooped oop in a 50-acre field arl day looig." THE RIGHT ONES the senatorial committee last Friday, have mapped out slam-bang campaigns in line with the state fight. Rep. Bolger has been in harmony with the state slate headed by Harry B. Hershey of Taylorville; Hoff is in sympathy with the "insurgent" ticket headed by Lt. Gov. John Stelle of Mc- Leansboro. The Republican party battle for two or three nominations at the primary (to be determined by the senatorial committee next Saturday afternoon at Woodstock) is being waged by ten candidates. Former Sheriff Lester T. Tiffany of North Chicago withdrew his candidacy Saturday. "For years I have had an ambition to serve in the state legislature," said Tiffany Monday. "But I decided after careful consideration that I could do more good at this time for the Republican party by leaving the race." Tiffany's withdrawal leaves as Republican candidates for representatives from the district Reps. Nick Keller of Waukegan and Harold D. Kelsey of Barrington, C. Russell Allen of Cary (McHenry county), Willis A. Overholser of Mundelein, Martin Jensen of Waukegan, Daniel S. Hunt of Deerfield, Brown Pierce of Highland Park. Michael J. Haney of Waukegan, Charles S. Neal of North Chicago and Charles Kerwin Stratton of Libertyville. The contest for state senator in the Eighth Senatorial district remain unchanged at the elose of the withdrawal period Saturday night. Sen. Ray Paddock of Wauconda has as opponents for the Republican primary nomination Verne Corley of Lake Bluff, Richard B. Martin of Highland Park and Albert N. Nordstrom of Waukegan. There is no senator candidate on the Democratic primary ballot. COMING EVENTS First Fish--How we goin' to get this treasure chest open? Second Fish--Send for the saw-fish and hammer-head shark! .
