Elliott of Glencoe Named to Head Sheridan Shore Yacht Club; Plan Season's Events The Sheridan Shore Yacht club, which held weekly week-end races, bridge parties, and dances, last spring and summer, is preparing for another successful and active season, following [the election gf officers, which took [place at the Orrington hotel, Monday evening, December 6. The club mem- bers held a dinner meeting in one of the private dining rooms at the hotel. Harold H. Elliott of 670 Longwood avenue, Glencoe, was elected commo- dore for the next year, succeeding Dr. | Charles E. Galloway; past-commodore. The vice-commodore will be Paul Date of Evanston; rear-commodore, Samuel G. Goss, Jr.,, of Glencoe; sec- | retary, Arthur Medlicott of Evanston; and the treasurer, Earl T. DeMoe of Evanston. The board of directors in- {cludes Dr. Charles E. Galloway, com- modore for the past two years, and Coleman Crowell of Winnetka. While no definite winter plans have been announced by the new officers, it is known that committee chairmen and members will be appointed shortly after the first of the year. The tentative plans for next sum- mer include the addition of many Star boats, making a total of about fifteen in the club. The Star boats are the largest "one-design" boats in the world, and are found in all parts of the globe; China, South America and Cuba. Now that several of the Chi- cago yachting clubs have added Star boat fleets to their number, therg will be many inter-club races held next summer, especially with the Chicago and Jackson Park clubs. Aside from the sailing, the Friday dances will be continued by the club in the dance pavilion over-looking the lake, at the Wilmette Harbor. It was customary for the wives of the mem- bers to play bridge and visit in the pavilion during the Saturday races, and it is likely that this will continue during the coming season.
