February 5, 1927 WINNETKA. TALK ' 7 NEW TRIER PRESENTING FAMOUS HISTORY FILMS General Public Invited to View Yale Memorial Pictures at Local High School Final arrangements for the showing of the series of Yale university his- torical photoplays at the New Trier High school have now been completed, it was announced Thursday by Fred- erick E. Clerk, superintendent of the school. Entitled "Chronicles of American Photoplays" and presenting events of outstanding historical im- portance in vivid and authentic detail, the films represent a fitting memorial to Captain Oliver B. Cunningham, of the Fifteenth Field Artillery, who lost his life in France during the World war. In accordance with the Yale policy, the series of fifteen complete pictures are loaned to New Trier and will be pre- sented in afternoon and evening per- formances in the New Trier audi- torium. They will, it is said, deal with major events in American history from "Columbus" to the surrender of Lee to Grant at the Appomattox court house. "New Trier High school is trying to co-operate in making this commemora- tive event as widespread in our town as possible" said Mr. Clark, "particular- ly in view of the fact that it brings to us a review of American History in its most attractive form and is worked out with the greatest possible care as to accuracy in detail. We hope that as many of the eighth grade elemen- tary students, as possible, will attend the afternoon performances and re- quest that they attend these rather than the evening programs as we wish to reserve this part of the program for adults. All sessions will be open to the public free of charge and we sincere- ly urge that they take advantage of them." The schedule of nounced as follows: 2.

Council Discusses Plan to Lower Gas Heat Units The Winnetka Village council Tues- day evening discussed at some length the application by the Illinois Gas as- sociation, now pending before the Il- linois Commerce commission, for a reduction in heat value of gas, from 530 to 450 heat units. Frederick Dickinson, village attor- ney, reported that Chicago, through its corporation counsel, and many other municipalities throughout the state, are preparing to oppose the application unless it carries a corresponding re- duction in rate. Attorney Dickinson was instructed to keep in touch with the commission and to co-operate with Chicago. The vil- lage authorities have been assured by the North Shore Gas company that it will not take advantage of this re- duction even if granted. TEACHERS TO MEET There will be a general meeting on February 4 at the Woman's City club, 360 North Michigan avenue, of the English club, with a dinner at 6:30 o'clock. A number of Winnetka school teachers belong and will be present next Friday. The conference founders and officers of the club favored an occasional gathering of members as conducive to greater sociability. Miss Florence Holbrook, principal of the Wendell Phillips junior high school, has con- sented to stage the first of these pro- grams. Dinner reservations are being taken by Edythe Lynch, Fairfax 8323. A For INCOME TAX Bookkeeping Cost Accounting Investigation Corporation Accounting call Paul F.
