Hardy of Evanston Named Chairman of Inter- Community Organization The North Shore Relations commit- tee, the outgrowth of a suggestion for the organization of a group of this nature made at a meeting of the Glen- coe Chamber of Commerce by William S. Edwards, chairman of the civic committee of that body, about a year ago, became a reality Friday night of last week at which time Prof. C. D. Hardy of Evanston, was elected per- manent chairman. The meeting was held at the North Shore hotel, Evanston, at which Wil- liam S. Edwards of Glencoe, chairman of the temporary organization, pre- sided. Elect Officers Both Mr. Edwards and Professor Hardy of Northwestern university, were nominated for the office of per- manent chairman. Mr. Edwards de- clined the honor in favor of Professor Hardy, explaining that, while he is heart and soul in the movement, as his past efforts in its behalf would indi- cate, he felt that he has not the neces- sary time to devote to the enterprise. Mr. Edwards is chairman of about a half dozen other organizations, he ex- plained, including the Glencoe Golf club and is building commissioner for Glencoe, which, with his multitudinous duties he said occupied all his time. Other officers elected at this time were Paul Udell of Highland Park, vice-chairman, and Miss Irene Strick- ler, secretary of the Wilmette Cham- ber of Commerce, secretary. The North Shore Relations commit- tee now comprises the towns of Ev- anston, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glencoe and Highland Park. Any other village in the north shore area may join, affiliation from each chamber of com- merce with the North Shore Relations committee being by appointment by the president of such chamber; of five members. The chairmen from the several chambers' committees comprise the executive committee of the new or- ganization, whose meetings will be held subject to call of the general chairman, and a rotation of member- ship villages will be observed in the selection of a place for holding such meetings. Area Problems The building of the new through highway, traversing the north shore section, will be one of the problems coming before the North Shore Rela- tions committee, many times, it is said, before the project is completed. Tt is one in which the several communi- ties are jointly interested, and is given as one of the best examples of the missions of the new organization. Track depression, which is being studied in connection with the build- ing of the new highway, is another in- ter-community problem as is also the drainage proposition. As the north shore continues to grow at its present stride, it is felt by the new organization that it will be frequently called upon to serve the ex- tensive area it has undertaken to serve.
