THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK mums (Additional locals on page 5) ‘ The Elm Place Schqol l The high school has an enrollment of three hundred and twelve pupils which will probably Increase considerably m the next tiio weeks as many families are re- turning the first of October from the summer holidays spent out of town. Judging from the boys who are present at the practice games of football an ex- cellent team will be chosen this fall {or Deerfield Shields. The following high school pupils have had the honor to be chosen as councilors for the first semester: The Misses Esther Baker, Wilhemina Bell, Helen Flinn. Mariam French, Esther Hicks, Franees Kennedy, Esther King, Irene Stevens. Ella Krueger. Edith Davis. Gertrude McLart-n. Margaret Wilhem, and Messrs. Stanley Anderson, Harold Barker. Liegh Bittinger. Archie Bowen, FrankCripe. Thomas Findley. Edward Gourlev, William Morton, William ()rpet, John Peters, Leslie Schauffier, Clarence Parliament and Lee Shaddle. Miss Gertnude Nevins, instructor in girls’ athletics at the high school and secretary to the principal, is very ill at the Evanston hospital. Miss Helen Sullivan is supplying as secretary in Miss Nevins' absence. The primary classes are conspicious at the Elm Place school because of their large enrollment. By Monday of this week the enrollment in the beginners class alone had reached 55, a number far too large for one teacher to care for. Some relief for the situation was found by sending home those lacking six weeks or more of the required age, eight or nine in all. The latter will be able to enter in the beginning class of next February. As there is no available class room left, it will not be possible to sub- divide the large group remaining and empldy an additional teacher. Miss Irene Herman of Woodstock. UL, came Monday to fill the place made vacam by Miss Wooley‘s resignation. The place had been temporarily filledi by Miss Esther Kerfoot who is acting. as substitute teacher this year. Miss Herman had a years leave of absence from Wood- stock for purposes of study and recrea- tion but the vacant posiiion in Elm Haw broved suthcicmly attractive to cau>c her to give up her plans. Miss Anna Mcl’crson of Chicago. is to supcn'isor of mu>ic for the coming year. She has had charge of that work in the Haywood achools for seven years giving hur entire time to them.
