It is hard even to believe that they have any present intention o fshutting it off. \_ This does not excuse any honor violations at West Point, but corruption seeps down from the top, and before the top boys will have any license to hold up their hands in shocked horror at the spectacle of a student cribbing on an exam, they have a lot of cleanâ€" ing up to do on their own account.. â€".

Lengford Felske of Cleveland Symphony Orchestra Will Open Concert Series Nov. 18 828 Marshman. She has done a magnificent and untiring job of organization and each committee has responded eagerly and effiâ€" ciently. Mrs. Felske has always been a good leader as her record proves. She studied music in New York and played professionally until shortly after her marriage. Soon after she moved to Highâ€" land Park she became Secretary of the Braeside â€"PTA. It wasn‘t much later that Mrs, Felske was made Chairman of the Ravinia Women‘s Club. She has been a member of Infant Welfare for fifteen years, Two years ago she held the office of President of the Senior Group and simultanâ€" eously was Treasurer of the Womâ€" en‘s Auxiliary Board. Naturally she has lived up to her past perâ€" formance and is making a real Follies. ber of Infant Welfare who is outâ€" standing is Mrs. Milton Hardacre Jr., the President of the Junior Group who is working in very close cooperation with Mrs. Felske. Perâ€" 'hl.p- their good teamwork is due to similar. bobbies and interests. Mrs. Hardacre, a Highland Park High school graduate, attended the Northwestern school of music and played professionally for three years after graduating and has taught not only piano but all orâ€" chestral instruments. She has orâ€" ganized the Highland Park Presâ€" byterian Church Choir and directâ€" ed it. Her efforts have been so good that the Choir has been inâ€" vited to be on radio and television ‘aeveul times. Highland Park ‘has two more members .of Infant Welfare who have been selected for jobs on the general committee of the Ice Follies. Mrs, Ingram. Rasmussen and Mrs. Melvin G. Barker are in charge of the Program committee and at this period are working hard to get within the deadline that has been set. Mrs. Rasmussen took Journalism in college but it wasn‘t until almost twentyâ€" years later that she found herself workâ€" ing for the Sunâ€"Times in Chicago. She handled a radio quiz program and eventually took over the editâ€" ing of the houle organ for the paper which made her a well qualâ€" ified member of the Program Comâ€" mittee. * Mrs. Kenneth Kightly, chairman of the Program Committee, has secured a colored sound film "Call of The Red Bird," which will be shown. This film depicts the activiâ€" ties of Red Bird Mission located in Beverly, Ky., and is supported by the Evangelical Churches and should be most interesting. ,â€" Mrs. Barker studied journalism also ut though. she ‘has never worked on aâ€"newspaper, she marâ€" ried a newspaperman and claims it‘s practically the same. thing. She has done some professional writing and been a perenial memâ€" ber of various publicity commitâ€" tees so that deadlines and layouts are familiar terms to her. _ There are many others in Highâ€" land Park Infant Welfare groups who have given a great deal of time to this Ice Follies project and if the opening pight is as big a success as anticipated, we can feel that those members in this community have done their share generously to make it so. kepâ€" Bethany Guild > Resumes Activities ; Fall Rummage Sale The first Fall meeting of the Guil%ol Bethany Evangelical Unâ€" ited Brethren Church will be held the Church, Friday evening, tw-hu 14th at 8 o‘clock. _ ‘This well be Men‘s Night" and all men interested are invited.
