WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1918 pr re ---------------- SEEKS SUPPORT FOR ARMY FOOTBALL GAME Phil A. Grau, Secretary of Camp Grant Permanent Athletic Fund Asks Residents To Go To Cub Park Game GRANT AGAINST TAYLOR Great Cantonment Teams To Clash November 9, in Benefit for Camp Athletic Fund By Phil A. Grau On Saturday, November 9, true lovers of sports in Winnetka will have an opportunity to witness an exceptional game of football. The Camp Grant team will meet the Camp Taylor team on that after- noon at 2 o'clock at Weeghman's Cubs' Park, Addison street and Shef- field avenue. From the information given by Captain Omer of Camp Grant, and from the showing made by the Camp Grant team in the game against Wisconsin last Saturday, it is safe to predict that this will be the big game of the season. November 9 has been designated as Army Day in honor of the event. Tickets will reach from $1 for bleach- er seats to $2.50 for box seats, all of them, however, being so located that a good view of the game will be se- cured from them. Boost Athletic Fund The proceeds are for the benefit of the Camp Grant Permanent Athletic fund. The Government does not fur- nish any money forathletic equipment to our boys. It must be raised through some other means. It is ex- ceedingly necessary that a stadium be build at Camp Grant and that all other equipment for football, base- ball, boxing and other sports be se- cured. Make Camp Pleasant : It is not enough that we support the boys in our purchase of Liberty bonds, subscriptions to the Red Cross, Knights of Columbus, Jewish Welfare association, Salvation army and other War activities. All. these are essential it is true, and 'must not be overlooked. But it nieans a. great deal to them also, when they find that we are backing them: up in; their daily life at Camp, and that we are entering into their daily exist- ence and training by endeavoring to make Camp routine as pleasant as poss.uic Ly enabling them to enjoy all of the athletic sports, which are so dear to every American boy. The game on November.9, between Camp Grant and Camp Taylor, not only gives everyone an opportunity to do something for the Boys in Khaki, but it will give value receiv- ed, for it will be one of the finest exhibitions of football that has ever been seen in the city of Chicago. Tickets may be bought at Thomas E. Wilson and Company, 42 South Wabash avenue, Chicago. The Camp Grant Permanent Ath- letic Fund Advisory committee is composed of the following: Emil C. Wetten, chairman; Captain Lewis Omer, U. S. A,, Vice-chairman; (Camp Grant Athletic director), H. H. Merrick, treasurer; Phil A. Grau, secretary; F. D. Countiss, Elmer T. Stevens, Everett C. Brown, Joseph M. Cudahy, Richmond Dean, Thomas E. Wilson, William Wrigley, Jr., G. E. Marcy. Communication A Timely Warning Wilmette and the North Shore voters in general should heed the warning issued by the Cook County Voters' league, John E. McDonald, president, and C. F. Manahan, sec- retary. : { The Voters' League has issued a pamphlet entitled "Shall the United Societies be sheriff of Cook County?" Wherein is revealed the dangers to such communities as this, should An- ton J. Cermak, secretary of the Unit- ed societies, be elected sheriff of Cook County. The United Societies is a conglomeration of anti-law-en- forcement and pro-German societies in the city of Chicago. They have opposed the U. S. Government's re- cent request through Secretary Dan- iels, that the booze-selling dance halls and carbarets be made dry for the protection of our sailors and soldiers. They have promoted the "special bar permit" iniquity and have opposed every effort to restrict this vice. They have sought to pledge all candidates for the State Legislture, if elected, to oppose granting woman's suffrage; the restricting of saloons nearer than 250 feet from a ' church or schoolhouse; the enact- ment of a law to oust from office a public official who did not perform his duty; any and all enactments for the furtherance of prohibition, Sun- day closing and law enforcement. Should Anton J. Cermak be elected sheriff he will, of course, be the agent of the United Sociteties in carrying out their purpose. Before the city council sometime ago, when asked the purpose of the United Societies, Cermak, brazenly and without hesitation, answered "We are organized for the purpose of getting as liberal laws as we can--. We do not want those laws en- forced." Does Cook County want a sheriff who openly states that he does not want the laws enforced? Can any in- telligent voter in Wilmette or in any of the suburban towns fail to see the danger in these outlying communities if a man like Cermak becomes coun- ty sheriff? The riff-raff and lawless element of Chicago, should Cermak be elected sheriff, would immediately find as- sured refuge in our suburban com- munities. It is the sheriff's business to see the enforcement of the laws outside VOTE FOR WILLIAM H. REID Republican Candidate FOR Member Board of Review A BUSINESS MAN WHO IS FIT TO SIT ON THE TAX PAYER'S COURT OF APPEAL Election, Tuesday, November 5, 1918 es i. LL RE-ELECT Judge ThomasF. Scully For County Judge County Thomas F. Judge comes up for re-election on November 5th with a record of four year's serv- ice that has won for him the ap- Scully probation all humani- tarians who appreciate the different phases of that most diversified of courts. i -In the insane branch of the court Judge Scully has established a record of constructive humanitarian effort that will never be forgotten by relat- ives of unfortunates that come there. In the first place he gave that work his personal attention, something few other judges have done. Then he forever destroyed that sys- tem under which the court was more of a curiosity shop than a house of justice. For that work, which has been accepted as a model in such courts the country over, Judge Scully has the commendation of psycho- pathic experts everywhere. He established the special.car system of transporting patients from the psychopathic hospital to the state institutions. He established the ob- servation system that has saved many from the humiliation of unnecessary commitment to state institutions. In the support branch of the county court his. humanitarian effort has been as pronounced, even to the point of personally assuming the responsibility for -care of many of the needy sub- jects that came before. No one who knows the court work of Judge Scully and. his tireless patriotic endeavors outside court hours can be other than a 'tireless' supporter of his candidacy for re-election from now until Novem- ber 5th. It is well for the citizens of Cook County to remember that the Repub- lican candidate for County Judge said before the primaries, that no citizen had a right to be a candidate for this important office unless he resided in the City of Chicago. This charge was made against Allen J. Carter, a re- sident of the city of Evanston, and son of Chief Justice Orrin N. Carter of the Supreme Court of Illinois, who was County Judge of this county for twelve vears. Such an argument to come from one who seeks the high office of County Judge disqualifies him at once and de- notes him as one who is narrow mind- ed who lacks the sound legal acumen and who is devoid of judicial tempera- ment, two elementary qualifications so essentially necessary for one to exer- cise juducial discretion. and which is so characteristic of the present in- cumbent, whose reputation for fairness rand fearlessness is known to all and whose kind and humane treatment of of practically him to the forefront as a humanitar- yian of the highest type. the city limits.
