6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1924 CONCERT SERIES NOW ASSURED FOR 1924-25 Another season of symphony concerts for the north shore is assured. Monday evening the management of the New Trier Township Orchestral association took subscriptions for season tickets for the 1924-25 season in sufficient amount to insure a fine financial position for the association. The occasion was the next to the last concert of this year, and notwithstanding the fact that a great many concert goers were absent because of the inclement weather, those present approved the ambitious plans of the committee unanimously. As was stated in WiLme™E LiFe last week, the personnel of the orchestra will be raised; from 35 players to 45 pldyers next year, with a consequent increase in the price. of the tickets to $5.00. On April 21, the date of :the last concert of the season, these subscribers who were not present will be given an opportun- ity to sign subscription cards. Already a large number of people who were guests at: last Monday evening's concert have signed subscriptions for the wait- ing list, and the prospects are that sea- son tickets to these concerts will be as scarce next year as they have been in the past. The work of taking subscrip- tions for the series of matinees will not be begun for a month or more. Country Day Basket Ball Men Beat Francis Parker The Francis Parker Boys basket ball team' of Chicago was defeated and an- other victory added to the North Shore Country Day school's long string Fri- day night, March 8, in the North Shore gymnasium. The visitors proved much stronger than expected and were lead- ing at the end of the first half 12-9 having outplayed and outpassed their opponents. In the final half, however, the North Shore team came back with new pep and unbeatable determination to win and by the end of the third quarter had brought the score to a tie, 16-16. In the last quarter two field goals and a free throw gave North Shore the nec- essary margin on which to win, and the score ended in their favor 21-17.
