Highland Park‘s objective is 30 beds, which cost $40 each and one mobile kitchâ€" en unit which costs $2,500. complete hospital beds,.and mobile Mrs. George Childs is chairman of the local chapter, with Miss Helen Bergstrom as viceâ€"chairman, assisted by the following committee: Mrs. W.

Pracâ€" mcauy ail of last year‘s Highlans Park Merchants footballers are out for the team. Dar Inman, athletic chairman, is proud to announce that such stalâ€" warts as "Beans" Sheahen, Frank Schmidt, George Bowden, former St. George high school star, George Hall, Jack Allen, one time Deerfieldâ€" Shields star, and many others have been coming to practice. . YMC Gridders Start Football Practice; First Game Friday The Y.M.C. open the season against the Kenosha Moose on Friâ€" day night, Sept. 20, at Sunset Park, the kickoff will be at 8:30. The teams will appear under the new lighting system attired in the finest football equipment the town has seen, as no expense was spared by the athletic board in purchasing the necessary supplies. $450 was the amount allotted to the football team and not one cent of this amount was saved. A word about the lighting system: Highland Park is second to no town along the North Shore in respect to its lightâ€" ed playground. The park lights, erected at a vast expense, clearly light up every inch of the playing area. Don‘t forget the date, Sept. 20 at Sunset Park, see the new lights, new uniforms, and a new, scrappy football team. Publicity manager, Tommy Brenâ€" nan, wishes to express his gratitude to Joe Nield of Nield‘s Sport Shop, who made it possible for the Y.M.C. to have such fine football and baseâ€" ball equipment, and to the Highland Park Press who were so generous in giving space in their paper for announcements and publicity.
