Re 16 WINNETKA TALK October 3, 1925 FORM CHICAGO FORUM North Shore Leaders Affiliated With Great Civic Enterprise Established for Non-Partisan Discussion Prominent north shore citizens, in- cluding Mrs. B. F. Langworthy of Win- netka, Harold IL. Ickes of Hubbard Woods, and S. J. Duncan-Clark of Wilmette, are connected in an official capacity with the organization of the Chicago Forum, a civic enterprise which contemplates bringing to this vi- cinity speakers of national and inter- national reputation for the discussion of important questions of the day.

The first session is scheduled for November 1 and the meeting place is to be the Apollo theatre. The council has brought to Chicago as director of the Forum Council, Fred A.

He is now giving his full time to the Chicago Forum council and will preside at the meetings to be held in the Apollo theatre.
