March 17, 1928 WINNETKA "TALK BACK TO HOMELAND Willibald Seypelt of Winnetka Returns to U. S. With Flivver Plane in Which He Toured Europe Willibald Seypelt of Winnetka and George Kern, Jr, of New York, who have been touring Europe in the "Yan- kee Doodle," the smallest "flivver" plane made, have arrived in the United States, according to a telegram re- ceived Wednesday by Mr. Seypelt's sister, wife of Dr. Louis W. Sauer, of 454 Sheridan road, Winnetka. The young men are now in New York with their plane and the trio, it is ex- pected, will proceed to Chicago in a few days, to further their plans to put the "flivver" on the market, Mr. Sey- pelt to be in charge of the Chicago headquarters and Mr. Kern located at New York. Seypelt and Kern traversed 5,000 miles of European air-ways in their "jitney plane" at a cost of 37% cents a mile. The tiny German-made plane, named the "Yankee Doodle," has a wing spread of forty-three feet, and is a monoplane of the German "glider" type. It has a cruising range ot apout 475 miles. Kern, in an interview given out in New York, said they used only $180 worth of gasoline and oil on their tour. The machine, he said, performed satis- factorily in all sorts of conditions and was the smallest plane ever to cross the Alps. Seypelt is a former German aviator, now an American citizen, and Kern is the son of a retired New York meat packer, who emigrated to this country from Stuttgart, Germany, in 1888. They purchased their plane at Stutt- gart and started their trip from there. Kern said he had intended to keep the plane for his own use, but hearing that Commander Richard E. Byrd needed such a machine for his south pole expedition, he was going to offer it to him. Miss Mary C. Lowell of 900 Ash- land avenue will arrive Saturday eve- ning from Simmons college for a week's vacation. -_--0-- Miss Elizabeth Shipman, Warwick road, Kenilworth, is entertaining as her guest for two weeks, a classmate at Wellesley college, Miss Hel - dan of Orange, No ¥ flor do For Representative, General Assembly, Seventh District, Republican Nomination Anna Wilmarth Ickes Your neighbors say: "Mrs. Ickes has served ably as a member of the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois.

County Liberal With Center St. Road Paving Aid As a resut of a conference between county and village officials held at Winnetka Wednesday morning, the village is assured of liberal aid in the proposed improvement of Center street, a unit in the proposed new north shore through highway, on which a public hearing is called for next Tuesday eve- ning. County aid is assured to the extent of 30 feet, the proposed width of the improvement being 40 feet. The lib- eral allowance by the county of 30 feet, instead of the usual 20 feet on 40 foot pavements, is the fact that Winnetka, unaided some ten years ago, stood the expense of the Sheridan road improvement, and more regently the Linden avenue improvement, through Hubbard Woods from Tower road to Scott avenue, and with which the new Center street improvement will connect at Tower, as another link in the new through highway. County Commssioner Oscar W. Schmidt and County Highway Superin- tendent George Quinlan represented the county at the conference, the vil- USE INCINERATOR SOON The new incinerator at the Evanston yards with its 125-foot stack, said to be the highest along the North Shore, will be half completed in three weeks and ready for use. The alteration is being made at an expenditure of $35,000. The new garbage burner is an en- largement of the old one and is a com- bination of the four old furnaces. The new burner has a capacity of 60 tons for 12 hours, which trebles the capacity of the old incinerator. The increased capacity of the fur- naces, however, will not appreciably affect the cost of burning the garbage which amounted last year to $1.13 a ton. Last Wednesday afternoon at the Sheridan Parkway hotel the Southern Woman's club of Chicago sponsored a very delightful tea and bridge for the purposes of raising funds for its new clubhouse. Among the north shore women attending were Mrs. Edgar F. Alden and Mrs George Karnes, both of Winnetka. Mrs. Alden is president of the club. lage being represented by President Henry F.
