Both teams have an average of 800 percent. Behind the leaders rank the Swifts, 600 percent; Squaws, 500 percent; Savages, 200 percent; and the Pan- thers, 000. In the first games of the new tour- nament, which has been started in the lightweight division by coach Clark, the Skokie Sagamores nosed out the Skokies Swallows by four points in a 20 tq 16 contest. School emblems, bearing the let- ters of the school, will be awarded members of teams which were suc- cessful in their leagues. The presenta- tion exercises will be held next Mon- day afternoon.

Read the Want Ads i Woman's luk ] A regular meeting of the Winnetka Woman's club was held Thursday, Feb- ruary 22, in the clubhouse, with the president, Mrs. Willoughby Walling, pre- siding. It was an open meeting, the hus- bands of the members being specially in- vited to attend. Mrs. Walling announced for the League of Women Voters, that they would hold a meeting Saturday, March 3, at 3:30 o'clock, at the Win- netka Woman's club, at which Mrs. Lot- tie Holman O'Neill will speak. Then Mr. Beatty talked for five min- utes on the National Kindergarten Col- lege project in North Evanston. The directors have purchased a tract of land in Evanston, near the Wilmette line, and plan to built two large buildings. They think that the training for teachers will be better than it is now, largely through the affiliation with Northwestern university, which will increase the oppor- tunities which the teachers and pupils will have. Financial aid, as well as other help, must come from all the village if the prject is to be a certainty. Offices have been opened in all the north shore towns. At the Winnetka of- fice in Community House, there are workers present every Tuesday afternoon who will be glad to give any desired in- formation. The meeting was then turned over to Mrs. Roland Whitman chairman of the Music committee. Mrs. Whitman said that as this was Music Week, it was fit- ting that the club have a musical pro- gram. She thanked Mrs. Cotton and Mrs. Kohlsaat for giving their time to conduct the music and the boys and girls for giving up their holiday to sing and play. The program was rendered by the Children's Chorus of the Skokie school, Mrs. P. B. Kohlsaat directing. The New Trier High School Symphony orchestra, Mrs. Cotton, conductor, Mr. Rollin Pease, baritone, and Miss Frances An- derson and Miss Maurine Clapp, ac- companists.

It has made two innova- tions this winter, first, in playing with- out the use of the piano, which could be trusted to hide mistakes made by the other instruments, and second, in the playing oi symphonies. The orchestra played with good attack; and a great deal of musical feeling. The overture, "Lustpiel" by Keler Bela, and the "Barcarolle" by Offenbach, were perhaps most enjoyed by the large audience. The Children's' Chorus, directed by Mrs. Kohlsaat, is composed of pupils from the eighth grade and few from the seventh grade of Skokie School. The Chorus, and the Boys' and Girls' Glee clubs are not made up of selected voices, but those pupils who wish to do this work. Without being hampered by the use of music, they were able to give all their attention to the director, which made for a general ensemble. They sang with a lovely tone. "The Sun Worship- per," a Zuni Indian Melodym which was sung on the stage, with an echo sung at the back of the hall, was very attractive. Mr. Rollin Pease, the soloist, sang a number of songs in a pleasing manner. The members of the club who were hostesses for the afternoon were Mrs. Spencer S. Beman, Mrs. William O. Coleman, Mrs. Frest Lowrey and Mrs. Theodore G. Rockwell. Arcanum Indoor Nine Books Covenant Council Players Winnetka council, Royal Arcanum has booked an indoor basketball game with the Covenant council of the order to be played at an early date. The local in- door nine is considered one of the strong- est teams on the north shore. The game will be played at Community House gym- nasium.
